$9,500 and yes I've ridden the Ducati a couple hundred miles. I got a good deal on it and will be using it for touring. Not a powerhouse but it does have a comfortable yet sporty feel and great mpg. The bags are nice too.
Yes, I picked up a wrecked 2000 Ducati ST2 and fixed it up. I am also buying my friends 00 ZX7r once I sell the Z1000. I have not been on the forum for quite some time due to some serious family problems (which is why I'm selling the Z1000). Does my asking price seem fair?
Up for sale is my 2014 Kawasaki Z1000 with 8,700 miles. The motorcycle is in perfect stock condition and I have records of all maintenance. There is also warranty from Kawasaki until February.I live in Zephyrhills, Florida. $9,500
Like Dustin said, you have to get used to it. I'm 6' 4 & 220lbs, 600 miles days on my Gen 1 was no big deal once I tuffened up a bit. Keep riding and youll get used to it.
It has way more mid-range power than the FZ1, better fueling, suspension, headlights, smoother shifting and running. It is a great bike. The FZ1 had better wind protection, better mpg (but I think that will change once I have 5k or 10k more miles). The FZ1 was a hoot to have that thrust when you...
Well, finally hit 3k miles. That's 600 miles of putting around for break in, 100 miles of hard riding at the racetrack, 1500 miles of riding around here in Florida with only a few burst of speed and playing around on what little bit of curves we have, 800 miles of the nicest roads North...
Don't over think it and just top it off with whatever color/kind is in there. If you want to change the fluid, get as much out as you can and replace it with whatever makes you happy. I use water wetter but I don't live in a freezing environment.
