sounds like u are talking about a ninja 500

LMAO!  I almost threw up when I read that.  Actually, I just found the '09 Yamaha FZ6R.  I don't do links or pics well so you'll have to Google it yourself.  Unless something comes along to deter me (i.e. a better option) this is exactly what I'm looking for as my next bike.

wow, can't afford most of those due to home, new cars, dogs, and life in general.  Gonna go fz6 or sv650s.  Love them both depending on price.

it surprised the hell out of me how comfortable it was - the seat doesnt look like it would be much better then the seat i had on my C50 (which was the suzuki gel seat no less) but it is much much much much better. in fact its the most comfortable bike ive ever been on ;)

One of my regular customers brings me his 2004 1200 Sportster.  Crazy torque and it's cool as hell bounding the thing off the rev-limiter but the forward controls feel so awkward.  Might be the controls plus the straight bars but it just wasn't comfortable to me.  Still love the bike...

Okay, so this is a lousy picture snapped with my cell phone of a bike in a magazine article at Wal-Hell.  Anyway, I like the bike a lot!  Thought I would share--it's in the latest issue of Sport Rider.  They made their own ultimate naked bike out of a Yamaha YZF-R1.  Other than stripping the plastics off, they made some other modifications--including going down a tooth on the front sprocket--as if THAT were really necessary.  My favorite caption said something to the effect of "The rear tire still looked fresh and gripped well after a hard day of canyon carving, whereas the front tire spent too much time in the air to be properly evaluated."

If i could have any bike right now, it would be at triumph thunderbird sport. I belive its 885cc and 82 horsepower. I think they made em from 98-04. Im not sure which year this one is, but its the right color scheme.  8)

I figure it's going for a bit of a retro look, and I do like it, but I can't help but think it would look better with a much more understated rear fender.  :dunno_white:
