I bought a Z1000!
Hi folks
Well, I traded in my raptor 1000 for a Z1000 yesterday so no more V-twins for me  It was a choice between a Z750 or a Z1000 and I found out that the insurance was the same so I went with the Z1000. It's got plenty of power, sounds good, handles sweetly and looks stunning. All that I could want in a bike. I don't regret trading in at all. It was a strange day because in the space of 1 hour I rode 3 different bikes - the hornet, the raptor and then the zed  All I have to do to it is get the seat lowered a touch because it is a tall bike and I am not tall  http://www.photobox.co.uk/album/albu...hoto=100442176 Happy days Amanda |

Re: I bought a Z1000!
Great bikes, oodles of torque, wheelies everywhere and a stunning looking. Lacking a little finesse in the twisties but nothing that a heavy hand can't manage. Doesn't look to bad in silver. If you're a proper hooligan get aftermarket cans to scare old ladies and squirrels! They'll hear you coming miles away!
 Enjoy!

Re: I bought a Z1000!
You're absolutely right Pedrosa
I could feel it wanting to wheely yesterday but I calmed it down a bit  . Sorry officer, the bike wanted to wheely not me!! I like the sound and look of the standard cans so I won't get loud ones (just yet...)Cheers! Amanda |

Re: I bought a Z1000!
I know you were thinking abot changing the raptor and wanted a jap. Good choice that! I like it! Even so I think Hornet would be the one for me. But I have to say that don't I!
Well done. It looks great! |

and  today  I didn't even cry when I rode past the raptor - I did this instead  It's like I've drunk too many e-numbers in my pop  I've got a hornet as well, I just like a bit of variety in my garage
