Les gènes de nakedbike de la Z1000 d'origine ont heureusement été conservés dans les bonnes zones, mais la moto a été configurée de manière conséquente pour être adaptée au tourisme. Une position d'assise adaptée avec une selle nettement plus confortable (aussi et surtout pour le passager), un moteur finement dosé et une protection suffisante contre le vent offrent une base optimale pour de longues, longues et non moins sportives sorties. L'angle du genou assez compact pourrait contraindre l'un ou l'autre d'entre vous à faire une pause forcée prématurée lors des longues sorties. En contrepartie, vous bénéficiez d'une position assise droite qui vous permet de déployer librement le haut de votre corps. La Z1000SX est une moto de tourisme réduite à l'essentiel avec un excellent rapport qualité-prix ! Une chose a été particulièrement remarquée : il n'est pas toujours nécessaire d'avoir toutes les "aides" électroniques à bord pour créer une moto de tourisme sportive très agréable à conduire - une moto de tourisme sportive de haut niveau à un prix avantageux par rapport aux deux autres motos !
