Are you going to ride the Ninja 1000? I forgot to mention how easy the bike is to ride. There was not one section of straight road on Deer Creek Canyon, but the high, wide handlebars made the bike so much more easier to turn than the low clip-ons on the BMW S1000RR. I also forgot to mention how wonderful the brakes, clutch and throttle worked. Who cares how ugly the exhaust is.

Not the Connie, but I've ridden the -14R. ZOMG POWWAAHH! Picture Jeremy Clarkson saying that, and you've got it.

You're mixing up the Z 1000 and the Ninja 1000. Same engine and suspension, except the Z has all the angles and the fly screen. The Ninja has a more rounder shape and bigger (and adjustable) wind screen.

Comparatively, maybe. But "rounder" is more like my bike or your avatar. Not the squashed bug look. I actually like the naked's angles... Just hate the dash and wish it had the four gold canisters *shrug* It's a wash anyway, since I can't afford a new bike. Doesn't stop me from dreaming or demo-ing.
