They have had a street bike version for a bit, there was a Duke and Duke II (620cc bikes). The bike has a ton of torque and is just supposed to be fun as hell to ride. They do look a little odd and get lots of stares from people wondering what they hell that thing is :D

Being on a Kawi for the last 2 years, I have to say I like them. I have a 01 6R and it is a blast. I would like to go up 750 or a 1000 in the near future. But I think I'll stay with the 600 until gas prices go down. Can't complain about 50mpg and the ability to outrun most anything on the road.
As far as longevity, mine has 56,500 miles on it and still running strong. I bought it with 45,000 on it and have had no maintanence issues with it except scheduled stuff yet. It's a very nimble bike. Very forgiving as well.
I know most people don't like Kawi's but they do hold up well. Jet went out and looked at mine with me before I bought it. You might want to talk to him about what you should be looking for on a used bike if you decide to go that route.

jet what appeals you to the superduke I just went and checked them out kinda odd looking to me
It looks odd at the beginning but the more you get into bikes the more you will start liking the street fighter looks.
I love fast bikes but it gets boring after awhile. Learn how to ride a bike and get one that is balanced than you can have fun all day long at any speed. That is one reason I love my slow SV650S. It is a cheap bike but fun as heck when it comes to the twisties but yet will keep me out of trouble.
I think my next bike will be a Triple speed though. I love the way they look.

I really want to upgrade to a 1000cc. After riding with Kyles brother man did I want an R1 his bike is sick. (john - pricing on my bike after looking around would be around $6K)

Brian I will call you sometime this weekend, and I am looking for a 01+ 600 or 750 suzuki. I did want to take out a loan for a bike with a good down payment, are banks ok with loans on bikes? I know they have a cut off for cars and what not. I would like to spend less then $8500. Cell #612-328-6066 if anyone has a lead on a bike in this price/year range, thank you. Also JET would you be willing to look at a used bike with me if I go that route, I will buy lunch.
