Is there a 1990's bike equivalent to a big GPZ?

Question

I'm looking to spend no more than $3k for an older bike. Has to be quick and fun and not to crotch rocket-hunched-over-kiddish. I'm tall too, need leg room. I loved my big GPZ back in the early 80's. Don't need luggage or a lot of bells and whistles either. No scooters please. Looking for a good counterbalance to my hulking Valkyrie. Ideas?

Answer 1

what about the older FJ1100 or 1200? look into the honda pacific coast or the the kawasaki concourse fromt the 90's.

Answer 2

The 1988-9 Kaw ZX10, or the 1990> ZX11 should work for you.   I have a 1990 ZX11, did a custom set of bars, to raise them about 3 inches, makes for a very comfortable ride.  I am 5 ft 10 in, about 215 lbs.

If you are interested, e-mail me, will give some more detail.

Answer 3

I looked on cycle trader for a gpz replacement for you as I loved the KZ's myself.  I found this one in the first five minutes.  It's a little more than your budget, but I think it would make a great bike.
