2011 Kawasaki Z1000, That;s right 885 miles!!! - Naked Bike? Super Standard? Modern UJM? Who Cares What It?s Called: The Futuristically Retro and Super-Fast Z1000 is an Absolute Blast to Ride It?s a rare thing: a new-from-the-ground-up motorcycle that feels so right and works so well right out of the crate that it has the press swooning and owners crooning. These well-sorted but rare bikes are often described as ?happy motorcycles,? and it?s become crystal clear during the last year that Kawasaki?s Z1000 ? completely redesigned in 2010 ? is a very happy machine. It?s a realization that comes after just a mile or two in the saddle, and it?s one that confirms the fact that this motorcycle?s design team worked a special bit of magic during development.
