Hey guys/girls
Bit late to join, but this is my ride, 2017 Z650. Done about 15,000km (nearly 10k miles), mixture of commute, twisties, long tours, etc, all except track days, as I have another bike for that. Hope to upgrade my suspension eventually and giving it a go though.
Love the bike, torque curve is simply a joy. Brakes, seat height, tank size, manageable weight and compliant handling all make it an excellent versatile machine. As you can see from the pics, it has a few mods. Here are the standouts:
Ixil Hyperlow exhaust
Daymaker headlight
MZS levers, Domino handgrips, Rizoma circuit mirrors
Michelin Power RS (F), Battlax S22 (R)
Hepco & Becker Crash bars
And some aesthetic changes (wrapped in black, as here they only come in green or white)
Oh yea, have changed the handlebars to be wider and more forward (see last pic), as the originals are just way too swept back to attack corner entries confidently.
That's it for now, loving seeing other people's rides here and feel free to ask me any questions!
