Hey guys,
I've been lurking on here for some time and I figured I would finally make an account. I actually don't own a N1000, but I've had my eye on getting one over the past several months. I've been riding for about 10 years and have had a few bikes, but nothing that is really close to the Ninja 1000 unless you count a ninja 650R.
I've rode a Suzuki SV1000S for the past few years and I like it, but my riding style has changed thus it might be time to change the bike. I used to ride the back roads probably faster than I should, but I took up going to track last year and that kind of tames my "go fast" addiction. I'm tired of asking my Dad to hold stuff in his bags on his bike (ST1300) and I'm tired of my back and butt getting sore after long rides. I'm not ready to throw in the towel and Goldwing it up, but I would like to get a bike that offers more touring options, but still leaves me some room for railing the back roads if I want to.
All in all I think I'm looking for a bike that doesn't exists, I want power, low weight, styling, handling, and touring ability. So far this bike seems to have all of those without sacrificing too much. So I plan to hang around on here and learn and ask questions before I pull the trigger on the N1000. I'm looking forward to getting back on a Kawi. Here's some pics of some of my past and present bikes just because
