YUMMY, but i doubt it will happen. I would seriously consider going into debt for one if it looks like that AND has the 10 engine. Old zeddy is safe for now though.
if it doesn't have a MOTOR, it's not a SPORT.

What a beautiful looking machine! Love the exhaust, belly pan and no need to get a tail tidy. For those who take pillions, forget about it!

Two Wheels have an overseas test of the new Z in the latest issue. They quote it as having a 15 litre fuel tank!!!! :shock:

thats roughly what they reckon. Makes it a pain in the arse if your sunday ride includes 2-3 fuel stops.

Saw a white 1000 this morning, doesn't look bad in the flesh (so to speak).

Cheers,

After setting up and riding a 010 last w/e ...
>>62km on board<<
- Suprisingly fun bike to ride
- Torquey almost fJ/GSF1200 ish low end grunt.. 3000-9000rpm roll on in top gear impressive!
- ZERO room under the pillion seat.....even less than a 10!? A great candidate for a Ventura ;)
- Suprisingly little wind buffeting around the lid for a naked(Gumby is worse by far even with d/b screen :shock: )
- Comfortable tourer


Power seems a bit too restrained by T/R and zorst exxup in lower gears by the 'seat of pants' dynomometer but then I had jumped straight off the 10!?
cans look a tad bulky / heavy.

saving the sheckles for one now though :kuda: :kuda:

I reckon I could buy one of these ones...

Paint the belly pan white and a few other bits and pieces red and white, and make it look like a newer faster version of one of these...
