A New Addition to the ol’ garage

This past week has seen the delivery of a new motorcycle to my garage. Love that. It’s been a long time coming, when time is measured minute by minute, through endless deliberations. For the moment, I have returned again to my Kawasaki roots.

The first real motorcycle I learned to ride, one that required using a clutch and gear selection, was a 1974 KE100. The first dirtbike I bought was a 1974 F11. A couple years later I spent two years riding a 1977 KZ400, which I used on my road test. In 1984 I purchased a brand new GPz1100.

<Time passes while we insert the GSXR years here>

I’ve spent many years riding various Kawi sportbikes at Americade events, and in '08 ended up buying a lightly used 2005 ZRX1200R.
