I actually went to the kawasaki/yamaha dealership looking for a z1000, but they're like rocking horse shit. I don't regret my decision one bit, but I would have bought the z.
Installing my pazzo's this weekend. I'll let you know how they are :D
I bought them because I get painful cramps in my hand when it's cold and using the clutch a lot. Man it hurts to bed when you're a long way from home. I didn't have the problem with my warrior or my R6.
Easy, my first bike was a 2003 Honda Shadow 750. paid 3300 for it and then the dealership tried to F$#k me out of 1200 for new sprockets, chain etc etc etc. I told them to shove it.
Maybe it was the dealer as much as the bike that pissed me off.
I owned the warrior before buying the fz1. Great bike, I loved it. I got rid of it because everybody I know has sport bikes, and enjoyed riding my wife's fz6 more. It's a heavy bike to thow around, but in a straight line its phenominal.
I rode one at a local bike event about a year ago and it totally blew my mind, the thing is huge. Amazing power and comfortable. I read an article about a pretty significant downside, 100 mile range. I'd have to fill up everyday if I drove it to work, and that's just ridiculous.

Highway to the dangerzooooooonnne
yeah I know it wasn't a yamaha fz1 in the movie
Coming home around 5:30pm, 100 degrees outside.
I turned right onto a 45mph road, started to accelerate up to around 40 and some idiot in a buick pulled right out in front cutting across traffic.
I grab the brakes and come to slow to around 10... well the guy doesn't speed up at all so...
