    Got it back!

    I am tickled toothless to have this bike back in my posession. The ride home was great!

        Thanks for doing the leg-work Steve...I was a bit lost too.

        Good story!

                  With Corvettes, the old men are the ones that can afford them, with motorcycles, we're just idiots like the rest.

                    Glad you got you’re old ride back. Seems that you liked it....

                    If my old 1150e ever turned up and wasn’t trashed I would, at least briefly, consider drastic measures to get it back.

                      Oh, Glen...you're making me think of my first bike! Only problem is, I can't bend my knees to take the sitting position!

                        I wanted to ask you if you found the ZX11 top heavy? I only had one ride on one, but that's what stood out to me.
                        Not at all. I found it to be quite easy to handle. The custom seat I put on it helped too. Sat down a bit more on it.
