Yeah thats what the problem is, I like the f***ing thing so much. But would like a new Z1000..

Hi S Man. I am looking for a ZRX to purchase so if you decide to go with a Z1000 I may be interested in the ZRX. I don't know if that makes your desion easier or harder.

Sounds like we have 2 winners out of this. I'd grab it and run.....quickly if it were me.

According to the 2012 Model Listing the Nija does come in green again this year, different to the first one but still green.

Yeah, I did see that - but the only ones I can seem to find are black (which is ok) and orange (yuk!). If they had a green the same as the 11 model I could almost be tempted back to a kwak...

Hang on Benno, I was thinking you were after the Ninja 1000, the Zed is only black or orange for 2012 You need to find an 11 model

It's alright Phil, I have located an 11 model in green. Going to have a geeze this weekend. Maybe Hoffy and I can be like biker brothers!

Ive replyed to your PM the rest is up to you mate. .

Phil::: Not to quick, Ive only ridden it about 3 times this summer[less than 300ks] & want to enjoy it a bit longer..

I owned a Z1000 08 model & a ZRX1200R @ the same time , the ZRX1200R always was faster "but" the Z1000 felt more aggressive & quicker seat of your pants even though it wasnt quicker than the ZRX . my opinion "dont sell the ZRX" for a Z1000 , you will regret it long term .

Oh now what to do?? I really like the Z1000 Ninja, but I realy love the ZRX, But I want a new bike. Im not racing anymore so I think I deserve a bit of spoiling. Plus this will be my last bike, im 55 this year, so my riding days are getting fewer & fewer, as I only like to ride on nice sunny days. So I want to give myself a retirment present, theres nothing wrong with that. But man its hard to take the leap..But If the ZRX doesnt sell Im not gonna cry about it, I love it & I'll keep it, & im not gonna trade it to a dealer that will give me pennys & sell it for thousands, the scabs.

Steve, are you trying to use logic to make your decision - can I suggest you just do what you want - dont try and justify it .

I can see nothing wrong with your reasoning, all sound like perfect reasons to me. It is much the same as what I was going through when I was tossing up getting the forks, I had always wanted them - so I got them - some poo poo'd the idea............... I have to say I dont regret my decision one bit.

You want a new bike - you get one.







And make ZXR750 a happy man
