Re: Motorcycle wish list... 3 Years, 3 Months ago  
to me the v-rod is a perfect bike. its got the sound, looks, flash and yes the name of a harley but the technology, reliability and power of a jap cruiser. i know the newer harleys were getting better before the v-rod, and a lot of them hauled pretty good ass, but i think the v-rod was a pretty big step in the right direction.

<br /><br />The Wraith is a VERY COOL bike. The only downside to it is service for parts.&nbsp; All that custom work, especially the carbon fibre pieces will give our local bike shops mass heart attacks.

You&#039;re not alone&nbsp; :beerchug: I can&#039;t stand the look of the wraith either.<br />As for a motorcycle I wish for... anything that runs&#039;d be good right about now but I really like the Kawasaki 636 and Z750S - If money were no object and size didn&#039;t matter&nbsp; the Triumph Sprint ST, Ducati ST3 or Ducati Monster S4R.

<br /><br />A friend of mine (OleManZ) has an 05 Z750 and he really likes it.&nbsp; I took it for a rip and it&#039;s a purty comfortable and powerful bike.&nbsp; Just not sure about all the gold accents....but it definitely grows on ya...

Re: Motorcycle wish list... 3 Years, 3 Months ago  
i dont particularily like the wraith either, its a bit extreme for me but i can see how some one with that kinda taste could appreciate it. my old man is thinking of buying one of those z750s, but hes scared it&#039;ll be to crouched in the riding position. do you guys know if more of a sport position or a cruiser position. i would assume its kinda in between.

<br />Motorcyclist July 2005 did a comparison on the Buell Lightning City X and the Kawasaki Z750S - I won&#039;t get into the whole thing here but a couple of quotes on the comfort factor fot the z750s:<br />&quot;You sit essentially upright on the roomier z750S cockpit&quot;<br />&quot;The riding stance is upright and roomy save for high, forward-mounted pegs that put kinks in long legs.&nbsp; The firm seat slopes forward, sliding you into the tank on long rides.&quot;<br />&quot;Its longer chassis and orthodox riding position encourage aggressive cornering&quot; :rockon:<br />&quot;the z750s can&#039;t mathc the Buell&#039;s brass-knuckles attitude, but the Kawasaki&#039;s more orthodox ergonomic arrangement is more comfortable for a broader range of riders, especially on longer rides.&quot;<br /><br />Ok. I got pretty into it.&nbsp; It sounds like SO much fun...&nbsp; :jump:
