What would your second bike be?

I think I'd go with a Kawi ZX14R. Of course, I'd also lose my license (if not my life) soon thereafter, so it'll remain "something I would do if I was still young and stupid"!
Seriously though, I've taken a couple of demo-days rides on them and there's no describing what it's like to get off of a 900#, 70 HP(?) behemoth and onto a 200 HP rocket that's actually designed to go REALLY fast, REALLY quick from the get-go!! IMHO, everybody should try it at least once.
I did own a '73 Z1 back in the day that I put a 1300cc kit on. Amazing that I survived that experience and that I'm still around to tell about it!

Damn! I just checked out the '16's, and they have a solid-black LE this year. Tempting, to say the least!
There's widespread speculation that Kawasaki will eventually produce a supercharged version with around 300 HP...
