Sport Bike

[1999Gst]

I rode my r6 for several years before I got rid of it, never really got bored of it.[/QUOTE]


Agree I've had my 600 for 2 years and it's still plenty of fun and I still think i have more to learn

Same as my bike, hceap as fook. it's actually an 04 is if it's that scheme. Probably gone by the end of today.

One way to put the 600 vs 1000 debate to rest is...

Any recent model (2000+) 600 should be around 3 seconds 0-60 and around 6 seconds 0-100.

As a beginner and even amateur rider, do you really think you need more than that?

If I did it again, I'd start with a Kawi 500.


And in case you're wondering, just like the guy on the 3rd page. You are about 99% guaranteed to have a very expensive cleaning of any injuries with a stainless steel wire brush - should you go down without gear.

To be honest, my Honda CB450 cafe bike was more fun than my GSXR-750. Just depends on what kind of bike you want. Ive been riding minibikes and cycles since i was a kid though.

Get a supermoto. I had a suzuki drz400sm this summer for a while and that bike was a blast. Wish I could afford to get another one as a second bike.

It's not a sport bike but handles better than them in the tight stuff, gets better mileage (60mpg on mine bouncing off the limiter and wheeling every where I went) and if you crash not a whole heck of a lot happens. Might not be a horrible idea for something to cruise around with and see if you like it. Plus I doubt you'd ever get sick of it. You can be such a hooligan on one once you get your skill level up

^^ sumos are teh shizz!

KTM Duke is a strong contender for my next bike!

I enjoy my Buell lightning, things not super fast but the Harley 900ish cc engine provides nice torque and is really a nice small nimble bike to ride. Would like something like that KTM or Triumph Triple R as a next bike.

You know, with that new ohm certificate form being released, building some 250's or even 125's would be fun to rip around town in! I really want to build one.

Anybody know a lot about sumos? Really want one along side my street bike some day. Feel free to school me but the wr250's look to fit the bill.
