Go round all the bike shops and test ride every bike you can.
Then you can write us some reviews.

Welcome to KB land..

The guys here can certainly suggest so many bikes.... and some of them will naturally be biased about certain bikes... (come on guys admit that you are really partial to your own bike).
:

Absolute fecking bullocks. Everyone would love to own a Gixxer 750 but have not goten around to sitting on one yet. No predisposed ideas here

[MSTRS:Me]

Hey young man, did no-one tell you that it's not the size that's important.....

[andyw]

errrrrrrrrrr what's an sv1000?
I thought that V-Strom looked good, and the Marauder too....
Thanks for the welcomes too!

Here's a pic of mine....few more mods since that was taken.

Hey young man, did no-one tell you that it's not the size that's important.....

I already know that and that's why I ride a 750 not an 1100....................... Its how you use it not how big it is.................so I have been told.

I'm off to Colemans tomorrow to see what they got.....I won the Draggin Jeans january draw, so I'm getting some free gear too!!!!
I'll let you guys know how I get on...thanks for all your advice.

Always buy bikes from the heart not the head. It's got to be a spontaneous "whoaa that's so cool I've gotta have it" Later, to the saleman after you've bought it, "and if someone asks me what have I bought again?
Heaps of choices out there. Try visiting a few bike shops for starters and just go with the flow. Being rational has no place around motorcycling!

I've found it! Took a Suzuki Bandit 1200 for a ride...nice bike, quite grunty, a little heavy maybe. Then a Honda VT750...nice bike, too windy, a good midlife crisis bike!
THEN I took a Kawasaki z750 for a spin...wow! Nimble, grunty, responsive...I just want one...but I think I'll get the Z1000S, it's got a ll the above and it looks as sexy as hell too!!!!!

That's the spirit Aitch. Totally irresponsible, irrational shopping. Woman do it all the time so why can't we. See your emotions lead you in the right direction. The Z750 and Z1000 are top bikes and the thou has the better looks and parts (USD fr forks, twin mufflers like nothing else on two wheels).
I suspect you could get away with making a below list price offer as well on the Kawasakis, just a rumour I've heard that some shops are trying hard to move them. It's worth a try anyway. Good hunting, happy riding.

Personal opinion, I suppose but I actually think the Kwak Z750 looks better than the thou, spec in red!

Those pipes on the zed one just look gay......(ducks for cover....) :spudwave:

You better duck big time before I come around and Bitch slap you all the way back to Honda land.

[gav]

yeah, OK , your little orange toy is kinda pretty, too. That belly pan is cool, when are you ditching the pipes?
Don't tell me.....

[Krusti]

Youre probably right gav. At least they make people take notice. I never liked them either till I got one. hehehehe

See in the latest Rapid bikes mag there is a NOS ZX12, 300hp. Bloody nutta. He's gonna turbo it next!

[Aitch]

got the windscreen and funny little grab handles and I don't know what else, but but I like the windscreen!
And by god that 750 did piss all over the bandit for handling.......and yup, the red is very sexy! Don't red bikes go faster too????????????????????

hmmmmmmmmmmmm see waht you mean about the pipes...and no windscreen either. And do my eyes deceive me, or is there no pillion on the Z1000 (and no S?!) :spudwhat:
I feel a confusionoply coming in....

Havn`t seen an N.Z. market thou mate but here they all have screens fitted as standard and have same seat set-up as the 750,maybe the one you saw has some kind of seat-cowl,which probably comes off.Must admit I think the Mickey-Mouse pipes ruin the 1000.Both bikes have had rave reviews in the Brit press,particularly the 750 which finally sees Kawasaki competing in the massive Fazer/Hornet/Bandit market where it`s bigger motor than the 600`s has it looking good against some very stiff opposition.I`d have one as it`s more in the spirit of the much-loved old Fazer(see my avatar)than the newer model Yams which are a bit too slick.(look I`m a biker,we dont do logic).Actually if that`s the kind of thing you`re looking at try the Yam FZ6 as well,not as torquey as the 750 but a good bike,Hornet 900 worth a go as well,they`re not too popular here but a nice user-friendly bike with a really sweet motor.
