I've finally pulled my finger out and started this little thread that was suggested to me a week ago. Are you on this giant pile of superheated dirt called Australia? If so sound off, introduce yourself and let us know what you've done to your Z and where you are!

Yup, just picked mine up yesterday so nought done to it...yet. Won't be touching it for a while though as the other bike needs a little love too.

Been riding for a number of years and love the naked bike riding style. Raced a scooter last year and found out how much fun small capacity bikes can be. The Z came out and I was hooked. Looking forward to a bunch of giggling in my helmet.

Anyway, based in Perth and would be keen to see a few more of the little Z's out and about.

Hey hey!

I pick up my Z next week sometime. Based in Sydney. Currently ride a vtr250. On My p's.

I have a brand new grom sitting in the garage that I'm baby sitting for 2 months for a friend so next week I'll have my Z sitting next to her.

Does this forum have a iPhone app?

My wife and I both bought 1. Arriving at the same time as Sikboy

Looks like there is going to be a big community of z125's and Grom's in Sydney.

Sydney here as well!

Not even a week of owning it, and a bloody drungo when a white ute backed into my wee Z125. I was more than 2 meters away! I didn't see it happen, but the ute was white...and there was white paint all over my front fender. The right side barend was scarred, my right footpeg had the lean sensor snapped off and front fender scraped with white paint.

It's going to cost $300 to fix all of it.

At first, didn't notice anything was wrong, until I sat on it, after lunch...then when I turned on the bike, my high beams were on...then I thought, DID SOMEONE SIT ON MY BIKE???

Then noticed the right bar ends all scarred up and my front fender being mucked up (and then the rest). Literally heart broken....but got over it.

Have a yoshi pipe on order!

Don't be a sissy. 95kph the whole way. You'll only have to fill up like 6 times! Plus we have plenty of shops up here that can rebuild the engine after that trip haha
