    47 years young and no signs of slowing down. Been on 2 wheels since I was 12.
    The 2020 Z is my first biggish bike, loving every second.

    Ha yeah well I am 64, been riding since I was about 12.
    Pulled up for a break and a coffee on a ride a little while ago, and a guy came up to me and said "your to old to be on a bike like that" I just smiled at him, jumped on the bike and gave it heaps as I took off ripping through the gears with the quickshifter.
    Sort of makes you think you look like an old fool to other people, it got to me a bit. I know it shouldn't but it niggles at me.

    Who gives a sh#t what that guy thought. I’m guessing there was probably some jealousy in his comment anyway. People who say things like that are generally not happy in life and like to try and bring others down with them. Sounds like you know exactly how to get the most out of your bike so don’t give the guys comment another thought

    29 here. Don’t worry, some of us young guys don’t want to be uncomfortable either. Started 7 years ago on a 95 Suzuki intruder that just did not feel right. fell in love with corners and picked up an 03 VFR less than a year later, and while I love that v4, I ruined my taste when I rode the z at a demo day in mid 2019. Took my brandy spanking new Z home in November 2020 and lovin every bit of it since.

    A very young 68. Most people can’t believe my age. I’ve been riding on and off since about 18. In the early years I did a lot of off road. But after that a few street and cruisers and now my Z900. I love the bike! My hardest adjustment has been foot peg placement. My old cruiser had them up way in front and now have to adjust. But, the adjustment is coming along quickly.

    39 here.

    Began my riding journey in 2008 with a Ninja 250. Upgraded after a couple of years to an Er-6f.
    Then I went into a hiatus. Came out on the other side in 2018 with a Harley Sportster.
    Sold it and bought a 2018 Z900  a month ago, with 22.000 km on it.
