Tomyspeedy Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 So I have a y reg Honda hornet 600 f2. It's my first big bike and it's awesome... But.... I want somthing faster. I'm always on the motorway usually in traffic... So I'm after a bike with a similar width as the hornet but ideally 1000cc. Hit me with some recommendations, I need to expand some horizons.

Hitbox Junkie Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Yamaha z1 it's what I want for a 1000cc when I can ride it a 2007-2008 model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony tt Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 If it's a naked upright I'd say a Kawasaki Z1000. Something sporty then a Gixer K5 1000 tremendous bikes and tons of power. Or if newer the new R1 or ZX10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebas Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I will say go for fzs1000. you can pick one for around 2 - 2.5k Plenty of power good handling and good on mpg. I have one from 2005 my girlfriend have 2002. Very good for travelers. We use it for holidays (Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, Scotland, England), weekend and daily.

Tomyspeedy Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 I'd say that I'm after a faired bike. The comfort for long motorway journeys but the performance of a sports bike. I love the look of the zx10s but I feel it's too much of a sporty bike for what I'm after. Had a look at the fzs1000 and im intrigued! Thanks for any and all advice!
