Hi again all, it's been a couple of months, but i traded in the Z750 and picked up a new 2010 Z1000. Wow what a bike! i absolutely love it. Turns heads everywhere, handles like a dream, can really feel the difference with the new chassis. Love having the extra power, and the increase in torque is phenominal!!

First pic is one i took with my crappy camera, the other two are taken by my brother with his digital SLR, you can tell the difference!Last one is a pic of the levers after i modded them.

Mods so far are- custom fender eliminator, modded levers, 3M paint protection skin on the paint, +1 tooth on front sprocket(for highway runs), exhaust mod, Evo tech rad guard, horn relocated, MCS mirrors.

cheers
Andrew

Looks absolutely awesome! 2010 - the year of the Zed

so you cut the knobs of the end of the levers and drilled holes in them???

levers without the knobs are actually defectable. and the holes do a great job of weakening the levers.

I'd be buying a set of Pazzo's of you want bling.

Love the New Zeddy's they look tough a a box of nails

cheers for the comments, yeah i know i'm not supposed to mod the levers, but fender eliminator is defectable aswell, and i've had local cops look at the bike and didn't say anything. I have a spare set of original levers aswell, just incase. i didn't want to buy pazzo's as they are expensive, and i don't like short levers(like to get all my fingers on the lever if i need to, i only just cut the ball off, no extra). As for the holes, they're smaller than they look, and i used both hands and pulled the front brake into the grip no worries, i don't think it'll get anymore pressure than that.

thanks again for the positive comments.

looks great mate! love my Z as well

Sweet
