Fellow Z Riders!!!!

Since this was the first motorcycle website i found, I am kinda partial to it. I have joined kawiforums and riderforums, which both have alot of info, but I always get the fastest answers here. I was kinda surprised to see nobody posting in here, but I guess us Z1000 riders are few and far between. I never saw a Z on the road until I bought one. I saw two in the first 5days after getting mine.

So far I think I am over paranoid. There is a "whirring" sound, similar to the sound a supercharger makes coming from the tranny, while moving in gear, with the clutch out. when i pull the clutch in, the noise stops. i dont mind the noise, as long as it isn't a problem.

The clutch basket is also very noisy when i am in neutral, and release the clutch lever. I heard this is common on some of the new kawis, but now sure. Either way, its going into the dealership to get checked out.

So here it is! My 2004 Z1000. currently 750 miles on her:
