Jesus, look at those chicken strips on that back tire. What do you only change lanes. Wow, with those suspension upgrades you would think he would be able to lean it over a little bit at least! LOL

If i was in CA i'd offer to swap bars with you since that's pretty much the setup I am looking for.

LOL DJ I tried to buy that suspension from the original owner when it was on Craigslist last summer lol. I got no response. I know for a fact the guy selling this bike rode it on Laguna seca....

If i was in CA i'd offer to swap bars with you since that's pretty much the setup I am looking for. I have all stock parts to return my bike to stock. Only parts I'm not willing to sell : brake lines..to much work to take off and re bleed stock shit lines. Front fork springs..again..too much to swap back..that's pretty much it. and battery

Well, if you want to pull and sell the bars, ends, and mirrors when the time comes, let me know.
I'd love the Graves set up, but thats just not feasible for my budget.

Thats why I jumped when I could sell my 8 for 5500. Broke even on the deal minus the parts spent.

Not his post, just an example of how mods don't increase the value.

Just made me realize you are getting a lot of bike these days for a reasonable price. The Z1000 is a great bike and I think it cost him 6500 or 7k OTD and that's at a dealer. The riding position was more aggressive than I am used to since I've changed the bars on both my bikes.. but man that engine really goes. It makes me shake my head that you could modify the FZ8 and throw so much money into it or buy a stock bigger engine bike for cheaper... Plus the Z1000 comes with fully adjustable Showa forks. The brakes are Tokico or w/e may not be Brembo but still stop amazing.
