In the early 90's everyone was talking about the zx 11's, I've always wanted to get one since then. Honestly now, I love the look of the zx 14's....they're beasts!

What bike do I compare all others to? That would have to be my 80 kz250 since it was the first bike I ever owned and rode regularly....kinda all uphill from there!

I am content with my new 82 kz750 E, or at least I will be when I get the caliper repair kits and clean those up. Much more power...probably the biggest bike I would feel comfortable on moving up from the 250....though the kz250 will be missed :(

I don't really think of either as mine. My bro built them.
72 Triumph Trident 750 3cyl.

Great sound and feel. Gets a lot of attention too. Lots of people with Triumph stories out there.

76 KZ900LTD

Same story here.
He also re-built a 77 KZ650B that I have that is a sweetheart. I'm putting in a new wiring harness due to a smokeup. I cannot say I helped him with these three but we did do a few of mine. He loved the 650 because of this ambergrismooon.blogspot.com/2007_10_29_archive.html

actually i have been thinking about it everybike out there is my favorite there are redeeming qualitys about every motorcycle i have worked on many makes and models over the years and ridden just as many i have restored old harleys ,triumphs,bmw's, a few nortons and a bsa i have hotrodded lots of big japenese street bikes,i have worked on italian bikes, under the right circumstances any bike can be fun i love them all from pocket bikes to ultra's street dirt or inbetween it doesn't matter some of my most fun testrides have been onlittle bikes ysr 50's,yz50's i would just about kill to have a late 80's fxrs the fj 1200 is an amazing bike to ride long distance i rode a 1973 rd 250 to san diego when i was 17, pick one and i'll have something good to say about it,some people hate 650 or 750 twins don't until you try one on a flatrack some time it will change your lifei like big power no power and everything in between i love them all.
