Buying a Z1000

Can anyone tell me if there were any problems with the 2003 Z1000's or any other models between 03 and 06.

My husband has a 2003 Z1000, and we have had absolutely no problems with it at all. Go for gold and buy the bike already! :D
Cheers,
Anne

Watties used to seem to struggle to keep the front wheel on the ground :)

I've never owned one but spent a lot of time following one. I don't think anyone has complained of anything wrong with them though and there's a few here.

Good luck

I prefer the 03/04 model to the new ones...

DO IT!
