Freeky.. Thats a sick bike but why wouldn't you buy a GSX-R. The new 1ks can smoke anything on the road and even the older models can too. My buddy beat an 06 just like yours on his 01 750

Because everyone has different tastes and riding styles. You should let your *** meter decide what the bast bike is, not what has the most power or what the magazines say is the best.

freekyFX4, cool bike, i know a guy who has one like yours.

My *** meter and a whole bunch of other peoples *** meters love GSX-R's. I rode a honda(we did a bike swap) and it was like riding in a wooden chair with wheels on it. Then I got back on the gsxr and was in heaven again and smoked the poor fool. 3 Weeks later he rode over with a brand new gsxr. Have you ever even ridin a bike lees or know anything about them? Power charts dont mean chit, its all about the rider

I occasionally ride a Schwinn.

Although I do ride this 2007 Ninja 600 from time to time...



Dumbass who owns it had dropped it twice when it had less than 50 miles on it (total miles)...

If everyone had the same taste and only bought the GSXR then the market would be pretty boring with no technology advancements.

BTW i got my motorcycle license back in 1988 and i know enough about bikes not to believe the GSXR is the best bike out there for everyone even though i ride a GSXR750.

So you got your motorcycle license the year Jwool was born?

I agree, if everyone bought GSXR's, the world would be a boring place. It's all up to the rider's personal preference, IMO.

Although, I do know... the gixxers are bad ***.

EDIT: By the way, I'll be picking this up in a month or so.
