Former Honda guy
OK I am not exactly anti-Honda but I am looking for some input. I have had a 97 CBR900RR for a long time and am looking for a bike that is 1. more comfortable 2. has plenty of low to mid range power 3. and works well two up. I was thinking a ZRX 1200R. I know this is a Kawasaki site but I figure who better to ask.

It couldn't be much slower than my 900RR. I guess I will have to take it around the block.

A friend of mine rides a ZRX1200. Its a great bike. Comfortable, good low end torque will be nice for 2 up riding. I tried to buy it off him but he said no. Sure its not as fast as a ninja, but certainly not slow.

I went and took a test ride today. Feels weird being so far off the ground but hey I have been in the push-up position on my 900RR for a long time so it's just a matter of getting used to it. It had more torque than my RR of course and the front brakes were more powerfull. I am just working out the deal now. Maybe tomarow.........

Almost there. I just sold my 900RR. On tuesday ( when the shop opens) I will become the proud owner of a 2000 ZX12R. I am guessing that it will feel somewhat more powerfull than my 900RR!
