    All I ask for...is...

    I hear ya. I never hit it... riding regular.....only yesterday when mixing it up with the boys :) Keeping up in the corners was no problem....I just got smoked coming out of them. YES I do understand the bike isn't a gixxer 600 or an r6 ;) Actually if I had been on my busa....I would have been...

    LOL...It was coming out of the corners today... with some faster bikes. I'm still getting acclimated to the rpm limit.

    NEW 2011 Ninja 1000? Upright Riding Position.

    Z1000S & Ninja 1000 They almost look like slightly different bikes. Maybe not? Maybe Z1000S is for Europe?

    NEW 2011 Ninja 1000? Upright Riding Position.

    11k is a little pricey, but... if you wait (patiently) 1-2 yrs....people will be dumping them like the FZ1 for 6k (give or take) or so IMHO.

    NEW 2011 Ninja 1000? Upright Riding Position.

    I'd like it also... if it has good low to midrange torque like the FZ6r. It's got a good seat height. 5 gallon fuel tank and a 190 rear.

    NEW 2011 Ninja 1000? Upright Riding Position.

    Just saw this on Kawi's Home Page. I guess to compete with the FZ1. 2011 Ninja® 1000 Sport - Kawasaki.com

    Thinking about buying an FZ6R

    Maintenance is very easy. $1000 is alot of money... plus...What if you keep the bike only 1-2 yrs?

    Thinking about buying an FZ6R

    Durability Is it fine to run the engine at 6k rpm for 3-4 hours at a time?? Motorcycle engines of today are extremely durable (under the most extreme beatings) and will generally outlast the ownership of the bike. I have NEVER had an engine problem with Yamis or Suzis.

    Went to the dealer today

    In Texas you only.... pay tax on the difference between your actual trade in value and the price of the bike you are buying. 6.25 % if I remember right. If I thought I might be able to sell a bike for $400 more or so on the outside...I don't gain anything as now I have to pay state tax on the...

    How much did you pay for your FZ6R?

    Maybe I'm missing... something here....but... 11,200 Australian dollars = $11,000 USD. The bike (2011 fz6r) only MSRP's for $7500 USD (here in the US). Brand new 09's and 2010s are being bought for $5000-$6500 USD off the showroom floors.

    That doesn't sound right? Even in "Australia Dollars"?

    new kawasaki z1000s

    I do have to agree with Kawis... having more problems than the others. I had a zx9r with a cooling problem and my '06 zx14 has an oil leak. Never any problems with my yamis or suzukis. Haven't owned a Honda....priced too high IMHO. But....That Kawi up top looks nice. Don't think I would want...

    Clutch problems...i think?

    If for some reason you... find yourself at a stop in 2nd or 3rd etc with the clutch pulled in and unable to downshift to 1st, just roll up (pushing forward or back with your foot that's on the ground) or back a little while downshifting the foot lever and it will click down. It's normal. You...
