I want to shoot the guy in your avatar in the face. He has the most annoying voice I've ever heard. And he's as hairy as a bear. They should use OxyClean to erase him from this planet!

Nice bikes guys.

Wurms: I LOVE that bike. It has such a mean, bad ass stance to it!

Re: Whats your favorite z50 year???

the 96 is def my fave. i think it has the best tank decal of all the 90s bikes. the 98 and 99 have uuuuugly tank decals. of course i covered my sweet 96 tank decals with Fast50s graphics, which now that i think of it look kind of similar to the 98 99 models, ****!!

i also like the 87 a lot too. its the year i was born, and the year Scott has. his bike is awesome, as it is the only z i have ridden that runs correctly!!!

what an awesome thread. so full of win

Re: Whats your favorite z50 year???

I like the simplicity of a hardtail.
I like the 79 to 87 classic teardrop tank.
I like the 90's CDI engine with cam bearing.
I like them all

But I learned to ride on a 1980 so it's habit. Yes CDI is a nice touch but I don't mind points. Once set, they are just as good as CDI. Out of the CDI years, 1989 is the best. Looked the best. Best graphics IMO and more red than the other years. I like red. When it's red I know I'm on a Honda.
Three up is pretty simple,isn't it?I ride my street legal 88cc Z50 all the time with the three up.I have several other bikes and they are harder to remember than the Z.Maybe because I ride the Z so much though?

Re: Whats your favorite z50 year???

Good investment I'm sure,but I prefer the 98's and 99's.They just look sweet.And in time,they will too be worth a bunch of cash.Right now they are cheap.Just like the older ones were,then.
