The black Z900RS is my desktop wallpaper. Wheelbase. Tank has to fit in there somewhere. Longer tank is longer wheelbase and they really wanted the bike to ride well. 65 pounds lighter and than the CB11. Retro shocks don't work well. At 160 lbs I am lucky if TWO heavy springs work at all for me. My TU250 shocks were perfect for me. Most Harleys don't even squat at all when I sit on them. - I like both bikes. I go HARD into corners sometimes. Advantage 17 inch wheeled bike. Highway lazy cruise - advantage Honda with it's weight. I HAVE TO get Ohlins for the CB. The Harley ZR1200 shocks were MUCH better. I rode my friend's like a demon. The CB has that motor. The sounds of air cooled. The bottom end pull. The clean look. The new EX is a museum piece in person. The old tank was very 80s. I did not like 80's square looks, cars, bikes, the whole 9. All said and done, I like both bikes. I can't say one is better. I'd ride both if I had the money. Like shoes, the other one on opposite days. Gotta have two pairs my Dad said. Just like in the Army.
