z1000sx gets better write ups than just about anything else at the moment. Waiting for Kwaka to stump up its habitual 1k cashback then I think I'm a player. Can buy 2 kwakas for one BM!

Was at Kawasaki (Albion) the other day getting a battery and had a look at the z1000sx. Looks nice, but very tall. New ZX10 looks tiny in comparison. I think I need to take a new 10 for a test ride...

Thanks. It's actually my son's bike. Since the photo, we changed the clutch/brake handles as well to match the bike. Added guards to radiator and oil cooler and are waiting for the full Akrapovic titanium exhaust (Same as Corser's).

I'm thinking of changing bikes later in the year, and wanted to get a few reactions. I'm going for a naked, and the options are:

Triumph Speed Triple (new model)
MVAgusta 1090 Brutale (I think this is the right picture, not the 1078)
Aprilia Tuono V4 (soon to be released)

Thanks guys.
