New 'Z' Project & Addition to my Kawasaki Family !! :-)

Postby Maccarocks » Thu Jan 22, 2015 5:16 pm

Hi all,

I have been secretly working on another project bike recently, my 2012 Z1000.

It is now up to the standard I am happy with.. with just a few small things to arrive, I decided to take some pics and show it off a bit... ;-)

What an awesome bike to ride.. I have never had a 'street-fighter' or more upright style of bike, but I always loved the look of this model in particular.. so tough... but so nice to ride, so much torque, I wish my race bike would take off as fast as this one does...!!

Anyway here it is in my favourite colour, black on black.. (yes I was looking for the Black Edition)

Very happy :-)

Macca

Hang on hang on wait a second. You mean to tell us that not only did you build a bike WITHOUT telling us, but you're going to actually keep it for yourself?

Ha Ha... yes Tim :lol:

I know I should have let the KSRC crew know in advance, but I wasnt sure how much I would really love riding this bike...!! and if I was actually going to keep it..

I can tell you I have not been able to get off it since I got it on the road this week... Such a fun bike to ride, and so much different to the ZX10 ;-)

I will definitely enjoy this one for a while...

Every time I ride one of these model Zeds I just want one.

I rode Mick C's on the recent trip the island, it was horn.
