Guys. i been riding my dom400 for quite a while.

Im looking at cb650r or maybe gsx8s.

The more i look at these models i'm now looking at z900 sad.gif

Is it suitable for daily ride? Just within pj. I love riding back n forth work etc.

If anything the Z is even easier to ride. Far more balanced bike and a easier to modulate throttle than the dominar.

However the seating position of the Dominar is a more upright and relaxed one with more ledroom..

The sportier z900 foot pegs are a little further back and higher making legroom a little cramped for day to day use..but it's something you can get used to it. Ultimately it boils down to if you intend to carry a pillion or not. The rear pillion seat on the Z is pretty useless.

Obviously you would be looking at a significantly higher running cost on the big bike. If one can stomach that, then it's doable.

im 182cm tall. Then i might skip this. I dont quite like the peg to be high up like the training school er6n.

For the pillion, time to time might ride around with my gf. Now that you mention, I don't think ill be getting this then.

Probably GSX8S

If you currently ride a dominar, you WILL find sport nakeds a bit more cramped. The Dominar is built and marketed as a "power cruiser"/small touring bike. It's exceptionally roomy for a 400 and the ergos are set up to be a relaxed one. In fact the dominar is nearly 100mm longer than the Z....it's a big chassis with a small engine...its wheelbase is longer than many middle weight bikes....so you can imagine how I felt when I sat on the Triumph Trident...lol.

If you are 182cm..ideally youd be looking for a bike with at least a 830-840mm seat height. The 795mm seat height of the Z would make it very cramped for you. Have you ridden the Z?

Thanks for all the input guys.
Deeply appreciated.

No I have not touch that bike yet.

Just went to view the cb650r and gsx8s.

I manage to test ride the gsx8s, the peg was fine for me and the torque is so much fun.

The only issue you had with the Cb650r was the screen? Wait awhile more for the 2024 model then, even have eclutch laugh.gif
