What did I take away from it all?
My sports bike days are done. I just wasn't comfortable in any form when getting onto the better looking bikes. As much as I love the look of the R1M, the new blade, the ZX10 etc, I just couldn't handle riding any length of time like that. I'm weak!
Sitting on the adventure bikes and the XRs etc, that felt infinitely better. So much comfier and I think we're all aware of how well they perform. That's me sold on my next type of bike.
But then I sat on the Z H2!

I did like that!
