First hills ride!

So just got back from my first proper ride on the Z1000.

I had an absolute ball, the zed is a true hooligans bike.

The only real issue was that I never could tell what gear I was in kept going for the next one when I was in 6th already, I think this has something to do with the short gearing. Hopefully I will get use to it!

Also will need to get some advice about suspension settings... Was ok but i feel it has a lot more to offer.

This is the result, still got some work to do!
