MHO...

I would'nt consider the EX (sorry honda guys) [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

I would look at the Z and the Rappy and see what mods are done on the Z and cost of mods. Look at the shape of the machines and take it from there. I would normally say Rappy right away but the Z is a nice machine and there would be no reason buying a beat up Rappy when you can get a modded Z in good shape..OR vice versa! Take the best machine for the money!

The Z sounds nice, but one again I would have to see both machines and see which one is in better shape. If the Z has been taken care of and the Rappy is a little rough then I would go with the Z, but then again if this Z is a little rough around the edges and the Rappy is clean then I would go with the Rappy.

If they are both in about the same shape and even with the mods the Z has I would have to go with the Rappy.

Good luck with your choice and I hope you and your frind enjoys ridding!
