Went in to look seriously at a ninja 250, waiting for a black one.  Pretty sure I was going to get one.  Mainly because of the price.  Looks great but ???? performance.  I'm thinkin it will be quite slow but not any slower than any cruiser that I have ridden.

While I was looking they had a left over 07 Z1000.  I have always been interested in a streetfighter.  It basically cost twice as much as a ninja 250.  Still way lower than the normal msrp.  Read reviews and they all say the same thing.  Fun blah blah blah but soft suspension and not very stable turning.  A little front end unstablility in turns.

Does anyone have this bike or has ridden it and if so how is it?

I have never rode one, but I love them and almost bought one.  They are strange bikes, but cool.

I have a 06 Buell Lightning.  Similar to the z1000.  I have to say, its the most "fun" bike I have ridden.  It wont win any popularity contests, or break any land speed records  But it gives me perma-grin  everytime I ride it.

The Z1000 is a I4 not a V-twin.  The Z engine is a revamped ZX9 engine and it like 953cc's.  I rally wanted one and I still may get one down the road.  One good thing about the Z is the price is not bad and the insurance is not to bad eaither.
