My New Bike! Z1000

[Nutter34]

Nice buy.... That the one that was on Trademe?
I've heard some of the riderforums guys comment on losing the pillion cowl. I double check mine is hooked in the front and listen for a positive click when closing it, as well as check for it while riding occasionally.....

BTW, for anyone else, there was one on Trademe in the Napier region....

The bike definately gets more enjoyable every time I ride it, have fun......

Nice one Krusti. In the latest Performance Bike mag in the shops, there's a suspension set-up guide.

Cheers

As promised

That's really cool Krusti. Must admit the new Z's are cool. I'd really like one of the 750s. Damn, why do teenagers have to cost so much!!

Damn! That's one fine-looking steed! Congratulations, Krusti!

Lovely pics Krust... :-))

Top Kit the old Zed! You lucky bugger!! How ya gonna keep the roadwheels looking gorgeous with all that exposed alloy?
I liked them so much when the Zed One originally came out that I toyed with the idea of fitting Z1000 roadwheels to my ZX9 cos I reckon they'd be the same fit. Guess it would be cheaper to
have my original wheels sand blasted and re painted/polished in the style of. Anybody got any contacts for such work?

YEEEEHAA! Traded trusty old ZZR1100 today on a nice 2003 Kawasaki Z1000.

Bastard! Don't talk to me.

Nah, congrats on picking an excellent bike!

Damn i am so envious right now.
I love those bikes - my definite favs of the new bikes (sorry the ZX10, GSXR's, R1's and Blade's dont do it for me).
And orange too!!!!!!
I hate you.......

Yeah...Went to Bike shop to look at possibly a new 636... saw the z1000 and like all us "know what we want" bikers changed my mind on the spot. Love the riding position, handling and attitude.

Appreciate all the positive comments. Cant go unnoticed now tho!

[crashe]

Krusti.... cool bike.... you surely will be spotted riding out and about on the the roads now...lol.
:spudwave:

[dangerous]

As promised

mate, that does look good...... now all ya need is a 79 Z1 in mint cond, the Z9 and Z1, Z1R hell and the Z1TC are legendary bikes.

Can ya get after market pipes for your thing? must look like the oem parts tho... and give us some feed back on how you find the wind with the lack of fairing.... thats the one thing that would bother me.

As promised
