Came across some pics of an airbrushed 2003 model Z1000 and I have to say, I really like the design. Brilliant artwork!

No worries Dave and yep the rear end is definitely not pillion friendly

you don't read a lot of magazines do you mate ?

That 'arse in the clouds' streetfighter look has been *booming* in England for the last 6 or 7 years, if not longer . They all do 'em like that.........which kind of takes away from the whole concept of 'originality'

some look a lot better than others....

I am not real fussed on the high seat, but the paintwork is great

Love the airbrushing but the rear end is a shocker

Looks like someone rammed it up the arse....

the painjob looks good up close but looks shithouse from a distance.....

The artwork is ok, but that tail looks like they flipped it and just painted it over without straightening the subframe.
