Saw that....as nice as it looks I don't think they got the suspension sorted out. Any more than 3"travel will have the pipes toast and the front wheel nicely lodged in the headers.......and that is with nobody sitting on it. Just my 0.02

Well like I hear from so many guys in FL on a KZ Facebook forum. "We don't have corners here", rediculous statement I know. What I'm getting at is someone will buy it who doesn't really ride like a lot of us do. Personally, I ride 'em like I stole it.

I dont even think its a looker, more of a "look i can do what a couple hundred people already did"

Note they say it was done because the stock kz "cant handle well" doesnt look like that issue got fixed to me

So, if it's a Z1000, why are there Z1100 badges on it? Someone is not paying attention!!!

But it's still referred to as a Z1000. Makes no (common) sense.

Purely semantics I believe......does one say "Yeah man! My ride is a Kz 1135" ?

+1 on your comment. The lines of the bike are so soft and fluid that such an angular headlight just clashes with the rest.
