sounds to me like you already made the decision as to which bike you want....searching for a reason? :bowdown:


still V-twin to I-4, sport bike to converted dual purpose, High insurance to cheap insurance, Honda v Suzuki, clip-ons to bars, full fairing v front only fairing..........................and the list goes on................anyone have a quarter to flip? :flipoff:

That'd settle it for me...$1500 bike even for a $5000 bike?  Done.

for real then a year later sell the $5k bike for $3k and go buy the F4i...hell trade in on the Vstorm is more than the GS private sale price

still a $1500 bike for a $5000 bike.  Get the strom, put a GSXR front end on it and a beefier rear shock and get a sporty tourer.

Yeah the V-strom is a pretty god-awful looking bike and the honda has some sexy lines :thumb:  I'm looking at one (cbrf4) out on base that the guy wants 3k for if I can talk him down to 2.5k I'm getting it :thumb:  Stock sucks........I don't care what bike...stock sucks :mad:   well cept for maybe the 1098s, not really anything left to do to mod it :icon_rolleyes:   I'd go for the cbr :thumb: :thumb:

Dude, if you get the VStrom, you won't get the respect you'd get on the F4i. You do care that other people judge you by your ride, don't you? Especially at the drag strip man, if you try dragging a V-Strom people will just laugh at you. You don't want that now, do you?
