Default Out of the car world & into the bike world

I sold my turbo integra and bought a nice 1999 Ninja ZX-9R. The bike has 8k miles on it and its in great shape. It only needs a front tire and I would like to change the muffler because its a little bit too loud for my taste. The bike will also get painted metallic black and will have a nice set of chrome wheels.

Here are a couple of not so good pics that I took yesterday.

PS: Any good forums for these type of bikes?

I had an F4i for a while - sold it and spent more time on the car world. Now I got this one. This bike is pretty quick but I am the cruser type of guy not the speed demon like a lot of guys I know.

I have mix feelings about that but I would need to see some pics of bikes with both combinations. I am a lover of black on black as you can see from my car :D

I already made some changes to it. Installed a carbon fiber D&D muffler and tinted sun visor :D I can't wait to paint it black - I am so diggin' the black with gold rims.
