The new R6 sucked. I wasn't comfortable on it and about 20 mins into the ride I was ready to take it back. I wanted to get on the new R1, but that thing was booked up on both days.
The ZX14 was amazing. It's a cross between riding a 2 wheeled Cadilac and a rocket ship. The ride is smooth and the big engine doesn't need to rev high to make the power so it's just so nice to ride. The 14K pricetag and it's not being the nicest looking bike on the market are the 2 things it has against it.
I really wanted to ride the Victory bikes, but their tent was pretty packed on Saturday. I was really looking forward to riding the new Hammer.
While talking to the Kawasaki guys I walked over to their Vulcan trailer and sat on their 900 Custom Special Edition and loved this bike. I immediately went over to sign up for a ride, but they were done riding cruisers for the day so I definitely have to get to a dealer that allows test rides because I've never ridden a cruiser before.
The last bike I rode with Kristen was the FZ6R. They wouldn't let a passenger on their Supersport products so we were limited. The FZ6R would make a great starter bike for someone wanting to get into sport bikes. I was bored on it after like 5 mins.
