I sold my 2003 Z in March as I got an offer I couldn't refuse on a mates 12k old 2010 Z1000. We'll, lets just say I made the right decision. 6K on it since March and I am as happy as a pig in shite, it will be doing the trip to the GP with Rod on his his 2013 and Nelso on his mighty ZRX.

Rear shock is crap, and the belly pan scrapes at full lean with the OE shock and 50 series rear tyre. The new shock and the 55 series tyre about to go on should fix all those issues.
