This fall I will be looking for a used bike. Without having tested any bikes Kawasaki's Z1000 is on the top of my short list. Call me crazy but I like the edgy styling and the midrange power. What is your opinion about Kawasaki and the Z1000?

First bike?

No, definitely not a first. I have previously owned a couple of 600s.

The Z1000 is a great UJM - universal japanese motorbike... old school styling, modern power plant.

A lovely green Eddie Lawson replica edition would be the perfect kit :)

Anyone know of any reliability issues with Kawasaki?
I have heard a few of the first motorcycles with fuel injection were problematic (cbr 929?) can this be confirmed?
