Welcome -

It's a great bike, but if you're a pretty small guy, then you should follow Kawboy's advice to lower it.

  Why ? And how short ?

Wrong sticker?  Mine says 12/17 and I bought it on February 4th 2018.  In nine days it will be my two year anniversary but it’s really three years old.  The frame sticker on mine has several printed lines of info with the 12/17 above them.

Hi, newbie here. Just joined, my history of bike for the last 5 years, Harley Street 750 - Triumph T100 - Tracer GT and beyond 5 years ago, not riding except during childhood with a Honda C70.

Z900RS was supposed to be D bike i wanted and in the end got a Tracer Gt, reason they stop importing these bikes since 2018 and they were pretty hard holding on to an old price, but i supposed nothing has change thru 2021 except for the colours?  (am a big sucker for analog twin dial, and wish they have twin exhaust like CB1100RS/EX)

reason for the urgency, my dealer just got these USED 2018 Z900RS about an hour ago, mileage 16,000km (9941 miles) and am all excited. call him immediately to test ride the bike tomorrow morning, in fact have just applied leave tomorrow, just to go test ride (fyi, i have never tested the Z900RS).

I know i could dive myself in with an immense of information here, but i might skip some important points, hence my urgency of seeking your help what to look out for.

1. what should i be looking for tell tale sign for a 16k used bikes. feel free to list the things i should be looking out, even it sounds stupid.
2. Engine, Gearbox , electronic, ECU - the more crucial heart of a bike.

to be honest, at time of writing now, am all too excited, brain does not function well... cant wait for tmw to test ride the bike. 

I Thank You all and look foward to your contribution knowledge and wise advice.

On the California variant the intervals are much shorter.
