You can buy this bike for 2600 bucks and it destroys the z125 in most category's including a better 5 speed transmission allowing about 10 more mph top speed and a longer wheel base allowing it to handle better. The z125 msrps at 3199 and was actually only under 3k when it came out in 2017, it you really want to say 2999 is under 3k which will be over 3k with a simple doc fee. It's not only cheaper than a z125 but ita a better bike. Not to mention of youre over 5'10" it's also a much more comfortable bike. So basically it's worth more than a z125 but no its not more expensive you're paying more for basically the Kawasaki name. I've got a local dealer that carries both bikes and the bennelli runs about 500 less. Now if you have seen a z125 under 3k in the last 2 months, you might want to remember that people havent exactly been moving a lot of inventory in he last few months and are wanting to move product. I cant say they arent being put on sale but they arent cheaper than a bennelli.

Everyone has different break in routines. The main idea is that after a few heat cycles a new engine changes shape Slightly and further seals itself shut. Heating it evenly will prevent the heads from changing shape before the block. Kinda like cooking, if you want things to heat evenly use lower heat and go slower. I would reccomend to do some research on "breaking in engines" if you're still unsure. This will allow you to make the best decision for your investment.

Refer to your motorcycle permit manual when choosing bike lanes. When passing if you can't see them in their mirror they can't see you, most motorcycles are wiped out from being in blind spots staying in the #1 lane passing a vehicle that's on the right you should be closest to that vehicle in #3 lane and vis versa. I have over 100k miles under me since 2009 never had an issue using that rule of thumb. Though I have gone done hitting a deer, no amount of experience can prevent that.
