Great bike not so sure it suits everyday rider ,for this reason I think I will hang onto my ZX9 and of course my Z900 for a while, I find the tank a little narrow at the base as I like to do a certain amount of steering with my legs plus the paint is a little to delicate without protection also makes it a little difficult to get the weight of the bars going down steep inlines by gripping the tank with my legs.Tight twisty stuff 25-35 k corners in close succession are probably not its best attribute ,mind you it may get better when I get a few more ks on her currently 1,500 combination of touchy throttle and weight transfer .As far as the rest of the bike is concerned yep shes a ripper just have to see how long before Mr plod is coming the otherway when im overtaking using that quick shifter ,that's just addictive and dangerous to wallet and licence.
