Oh man....a few too many...
My first was a 1984 Ninja 600R.
then.... 1994 ZX7, 1995 Ninja 250 race bike, 1996 ZX7RR (one of 350 imported to the USA...unfortunately, the guy I bought it off had blown the engine, so it had a stock ZX7R motor, but was otherwise a RR model). Then a crashed racing and broke my collar bone - and couldnt take that "monkey f**king a football" riding position any longer. So I got the 2003 Z1000 in black. That got stolen, so I replaced it with a 2003 Z1000 in orange. Just sold that (along with my Honda Shadow) to finance the purchase of the 2010 Z1000 in white/orange.
So, this is my 7th Kawasaki.
Yeah, i bleed green
