Kreb Cycle is an expert on popping wheelies and getting caught by the Cpps.. He can hook you up with a good lawyer.. I still think ksickle is going to some time in the orange jump suit though according to a cop friend of my wifes...

Caught it good stuff!

ditto for me the gold pipes were funky but i liked the old pipes in silver would have been fine... compared to these.

I guess I've heard about that little twig and berry issue here and there. I simply have no memory of it being a problem for me, in case I wasn't plain enough in the story.

An important note on that subject is that I stand 5'8". So, my guess would be that the alleged issue would be more problematic for me. Apparently it was taller guys that had manberry problems. Hmm...

I've been to a couple sites that have reviewed the Z1000 and everyone is very reluctant about the bike. I don't understand, its a really solid bike for very little money. Cheaper than a Speed Triple and they have a lot of similar problems..... It might be fugly too, but people shouldn't complain because I doubt that they wouldn't make the bike look better by sitting on it.

ps- on the video, less dude, more bike. Thanks.

Cool! Another bike that won't sell!

It will last two years, tops.

I thought the original model looked great with the overall styling, especially the pipes. Some people hated it, others loved it, at least some of the jap manufacturers are trying something a bit different.

I think it would be a better looking bike if they'd kept the quad exhaust. If I was going to buy a second bike, apart from satisfying my weird desire to own a black TLS1000, this is the sort of thing I'd pick up.

Plus they are good value compared to sport bikes.
