Nice ride ya got there. 'Bout how much did it run ya?

Cost 20,000 and hav spent about 6,000 on custom parts, but comparing it to a harley it out performs in all ways,6 pot twin disc front,fuel injection more horsepower,I could go on and on.Added a Power commander Vance and Hines pipes, Rissers, Chrome radiator cover, leather solo seat, amd just adding custom chrome forward conrols. It handles fecking well for a big bike 240 top end, 180 in fourth, plus its a shaft drive ,super smooth.

Sounds a bit better than the Roadstar Warrior for the same price. And shaft drive too wich is a plus.

Def worth checking out, I looked at all cruzzers including another Harley, but this just got me, looks better then most,has alot of stlye, but most of all, all the parts are from the ZX range which gives it good handling,also had a 180HP ZX12R [2002]. Love kawasaki

Very nice indeed. Cheaper than a harley aswell. Yea Yamaha did the same for the newer Warriors. Most of the parts came from the R1. Don't like the 2-1 pipe though.

Motorcycle USA in their power cruiser compero call the mean streak,
The "lean streak" over rated,under powered ect ect.
Never ask the owner of a bike who's just spent mega bucks on the thing how good it is.Your only going to get one answer.
Read a few real road tests first.

**stevedee** · 8th July 2005, 21:56

Looks a fine cycle to me, always wanted to test a big cruiser, who knows one day ....... Great bike mate, if I win lotto I'll buy a green one.

Well Igeuss I can talk with some knowledge considering I hav ridin all my life[25 y] and owned some 15 bikes, of just about every make and 2 harleys, so I sort of hav some comparasin, what about you. Also none of my mods did anything to alter the power or handling, yet it still blows away all my mates harleys excluding the V.Rod and out corners and brakes them. Now are we comparing this with a zx12r,

its a cruzzer ,look around what else do you get for this price
