Welcome to the site
I'm slow too but still like it.At lease at the strip/racetrack you don't have to worry about someone pulling out in front of you.Are you going to make it to Deals Gap 3?

Tens and Theres
Cant make the Gap. Bike show is a definite. I'm also a Nesba member went on a road coarse last month, didnt know I could turn till then. 1/4 mile is still my drug of choice. Thanks for the welcomes this will be intersting. Ijust realized the ZX-12 banner. Will I be outcast for being 100cc's short?

Yep
Ah another familiar face. Just the basic off the assembly line (almost)ZRX1100. I'm one of the quick ones huh? Scary thought I've gotta alot of catching up to do for Ken and Dean. I do however have a Blackbird and recently a Busa under my belt, due to rider error I'm sure.

I have looked at the ZRX1100
We have a ZX12R, Busa, KZ900 and a YSR50(my toy)....I thought about getting a naked bike like the ZRX1100 for the comfort factor.....(and still enough power)
Are They comfortable for long hauls????

Long Hauls
Alot of people do some touring on them. Biggest complaints are the seat easily fixed with a Corbin or Sargent. Taller windscreens are also available, its rather harsh crusin at 120.

comfort level
I ride mine back and forth to school in the summer time- that's a 250 mile ride one way. It is pretty decent for a nekid bike, bike I wish I had a 12R for that ride.
