Because of the repair quote I just received from the damage, I might be getting a new bike.

I'm thinking CBR600rr or the R6.
What do you prefer?  This question doesn't include Pablo. :laugh: :bowdown:

01 gs500 stunt bike---SV integrated tail light, renthal bars, 13 up sprocket, engine cage, no plastics except for fender, dented in tank w/grip tape, 12 o'clock bar, enduro headlight, lots of spray paint, too many zip ties and maybe some tape here and there.

Your wasting your time with the 600, get yourself a R1

Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

There's a SEXY FIRE RED Mille in Dallas for sale right now for $6500!!  Bike is f%$king BADASS!  

'05 SV1k's are going for about $6500 OTD at the dealers!

Ebay has a nice Brutale in Malibu for only $12k. (wrong engine is made up by the right letters in the make)

Tuono's are all over the place for $7k~ish.

RC51's are all over the board.

TL1000R's and TL1000S's are running as low as $3k for MINT modifiied bikes! (tlplanet/tlzone)

I wouldn't get anything bigger than a 600 - 650, unless I was getting a sport touring mount.

Why pay for the extra weight to have the same amount of horsepower/torque?!  :dunno_white:

Check out the Honda VFR800.

Seating is VERY! comfortable, it has a V-4 (ZOMFG) with V-tec! Great wind protection and ABS. Single side swingarm too.

It also doesn't scream "GIVE ME A TICKET!" anywhere near as loud as a 600cc SS.

i just bought a boulevard c50. I know your probably not looking at cruisers, but i f%$king love it. And insurance is sooo much cheaper then a cbr600 or an r1 would be. and SOOOOO comfortable ;)

My next bike will be a V-Max:



If you like the upright seating position and feel like you're ready for more power take a look at one.

edit - That's not me by the way  :laugh:

V-Max is great...I'd absolutely LOVE to have one...but I wouldn't help being able to trick it a little.

First thing that would have to change is the steering head bearings...they are SOOOOO sloppy that tripple digits are suicidal.

Next exhaust (duh).

Then the generic stuff...GSXR rear wheel, probably GSXR forks so I can get 6-pots and 320mm discs, intake, sissy bar, quick release racks, cams, drag bars, and so on.  Kalee would love me for it...and it would be faster than my TL...but nowhere near the character.

jdanna

v-maxes (or however you would pluralize it) are just so utterly bonkers that it just makes them so cool.
and that they havent really changed since their introduction in the early 1500s.
