Changing the substance while keeping the look unchanged is actually quite difficult. The Z900RS is a model that preserves an air-cooled-style form while refining what's underneath, and I'm always struck by that sense of balance. A test-ride report comparing three variants with different characters at once -- SE, Black Ball, and Cafe -- is a real feast for a spec lover like me.
