Just checking in with my fellow Kawi nuts. I am within days of pulling the trigger on a 2011 Ninja 1000 and thought it would be cool to scan the forums, if anybody knows what's up, it is you guys. This will be the 62nd motorcycle i have owned!. My other current bikes are a '66 Triumph TT special, a '73 Yamaha MX250 modded for dirt track, an '81 KZ1000R clone and an '08 KLR650.
