Hi all, on a spur of the moment decision I decided to sell my Tiger 800 XCa and buy the Z900RS from Jordan’s in Leeds. I bought it purely online with a decent video done by the sales guy and it was love at first sight sorry about my ugly mug but was really unwell when it was delivered this Saturday.
I like those! And that colour is gorgeous in person I wish Triumph would do some proper colour schemes on their roadsters!
Very nice too, as for your ugly mug I wouldn't worry about it, I've seen far worse in the mirror. Enjoy that 900.
If I did not have triumphs I would have one of those z900rs bikes. That bike looks awesome with the gold wheels.
Enjoy that Kawi, Andy! It looks great. Give us your thoughts on it when you're feeling better and get out on the road with it.
When I bought the Tiger the Z900RS was my very close second choice, part of me wishes I bought the Z9 first but if that happened I would have never experienced what a great bike the Tiger was, yes I had issues in the beginning but that was purely the rubbish the dealer made and not the fault of the Tiger, still my Tiger is up north now with a dealer in Leeds so if anyone buys a Rossi Red Tiger soon send me a PM and we can compare reg numbers.
I think Kawasaki played a blinder with the 900RS. The looks of a legend, the Z1 with better handling and braking. What's not to like!
A lot more power too, I took one for a test ride, it’s a quick bike, I liked it but not quite enough to buy one, great bike all the same, I took the Z650rs out as well and although it’s nowhere near as quick I actually preferred it, so once they become available 2nd hand in 6 to 12 months or so I’ll very likely buy one
