ZX9R would be less than 200kg, which is the main concern.
I tested the DR’s carb setup in rush hour traffic this afternoon. Definitely did not make any friends. Absolutely loved it. Forgot how aggressive the bike can be. Super light, insane tight steering potential.
After so many ruts and slow green lane riding, revving the pants off it through town traffic was a pure delight.

You want a really light bike with as much power as possible for £2-3K. Not an easy job in this day and age. Maybe the ZX9 will be the best option before spring and bike prices going up.
At least you're not worried about fuel costs.
Based on what you've written here it seems to me you want a much lighter bike that makes less deadly speed. That is not a ZX9.

No way are they less than 200kg - they're massive. Big, heavy old school super-fast buses. No point swapping the bird for one.

Last time I checked the 9 meant 900cc's. Are you not supposed to be shopping for something smaller and lighter? Like a 90's 400 ninja.
