I wanted a lightly used zx-25r, light weight, high revving, it would be a fun way to get around the city pretending I'm a sportsbike revving to 17000 rpm while barely generating 50 hp. But there was an even lighter used, newer zx-4rr for the same price. Not what I wanted, but obviously more bike=better.

But then there was a 2014 z1000 in great condition for the same price so I really didn't have a choice in the matter.

I have to push really hard to keep this thing leaned over, my feet feel like they're way too far back, I can't split like I normally do because it's so big, my thighs get cooked, there's literally no reason to leave first gear it might as well be an automatic scooter that likes to do wheelies.

Anyone have any advice how I can make it more comfortable or enjoyable?

I wear size 48 pants even tho I'm a 34, absolutely can't pass up a bargain when they are the same price.

But seriously I hope you can change the z1000 to suit you.
