Well, after doing a bunch of research on a new bike... I've come to the conclusion that I wanted to try an enduro / street moto. I used to own an FZR 600 and a Kawi ZX7R, and planned on purchasing an Aprlia Mille, but conveniently it was bought out from under me. Probably for the better, because I would have cried if I ever had to replace anything on it.... I almost bought a Buell S1 or X1... but didn't want to deal with the whole company dying out and non support from Harley. I've always been a guy that likes to ride bikes that I don't see every day. So yeah, no trendy GSxR's, CBR's, or Newer R6's for me... I was also done with the "have to rev the piss out of me" in line 4 syndrome because all it did was get me in trouble. I knew I wanted either a twin bike, or a big thumper. I love KTM, but a little pricey on their LC4 and 8 bikes... Wanted a WR, but there are too many around... SV1k's are great, but too trendy. What to do... Wait... what is this? MZ?
The bike has landed... and I'm taking it to work tomorrow... OMG it is so FREAKING torquey!!!!!!!! I am stoked!!!!! I brought this thing home tonight and I CAN'T SLEEP! I keep going outside to look at all the cool things this bike has.
It's a 2003 that needs a couple things, but I had to pick it up... Bought from an older gentlemen and it's all stock aside from the can, the bars, grips, and bar end mirrors. I already read the thread about the front and rear brake switches... I'm currently looking for a wide seat for it, and how to move the headlight to the forks. I'm also looking for some fork boots!!!! I've already fallen in love. This thing is so different from everything else and I'm happy I can start saving gas again!!!! Let's gooOOOOOO!
