Ok, so essentially I am ready to take the next step and upgrade my ride. Since 2009 I have been riding a CBR125RW and even though it has served me faithfully I feel the need to step up my game. Thing is I am quite divided about which kind of bike I should get.

Right now I am eyeing up a 2007 Kawasaki Z1000 with 6800 kilometers on it for 7000 CAD (I am probably overpaying this but all motorcycles are damn expensive in Canada), mint condition but I tend to find reviews for this model highly divided. In the end I am looking for a Street Fighter/Naked/Standard bike that has horse power but at the same time is reliable and fun to ride. Can anybody give me any other suggestions or is my choice (and I have gone over it with a fine tip toothbrush) a competent one?

Before you naysayers have anything to say about the step up from a 125cc bike to a 1000cc bike being unintellegently too big for me, I can ride a Hayabusa just fine thankyou very much but it is too expensive for me and is not what I am looking for in a bike.

But on-topic, get on you KNOW you can "fit" on and be comfortable that 2007 Kawasaki Z1000 sounds good if you "fit" it.
