Best Jap Litre Bike 06?

[loosebruce]

Right we've all read masterbike, superbike, preformance bike and all the other shit out there, but what do the people think is the top litre bike given experiance and the facts?

The unchanged for 2006 and reining king, Suzuki's GSXR1000K6
The basiclly unchanged from 2004, Yamahas R1
The slight but effective changes to the new Honda CBR1000RR
The All new for 2006, Kawasakis ZX10R

After reading numerous test, i have to say it seems Kawasaki have got it wrong this time, with many testers calling for them to give them the 05 bike with the Ohlins damper on that, shame i for one thought this bike was going to be the one to beat this time round, but there hasn't been much to rave about, the styling IMO some angles it looks mint, the black one with the akro's on looks shit hot, until you get to the front, think one tester discribed it as a pokemon thats been smacked in the face! In matserbike it was a fast bike on the track, but overall it hasn't faired to well in various tests elsewhere.

The R1, still a wicked peice of kit, but falling behind due to lack of updates, 2007 should see an all new R1 following the lines of the wicked little R6, the R1 is always up there (as are all the bikes) it has some say the best looks of any Jap bike, and i'd have to agree it is a pretty thing to look at, some of the colour schemes are a bit odd though!

The Honda, well it's had some small but very effectice changes, minor cosmetic changes and finally a decent fucken paint job, the 06 in red n black looks shit hot, the muffler lighter and a new much better looking twin exit tip, rather than the money butt exhaust of the old one, they made slight changes to gearing (2 teeth up on the rear) and a few others here and there, the Honda always been a top bike that did everything well but nothing well at the same time, from what i've read of the new one, its a changed beast and it's challenging the others in all deptmartments.

The GSXR, well some say i's biased, which yes i love my Suzuki's, but at the end of the day i buy my bikes at whats the best performing bike i can afford at the time, and the GSXR has always been the bike at the time.
The 06 model is unchanged from the 05, styling is divided into love it or hate, the stock muffler IMO is the shizz, love it when a manufacturer steps out and does something way different. The bike as everyone knows is a weapon in stock tirm and even in 06 in the face of some tough challenges its still topping most of the tests between the four litre bikes and if it's not tops it's right there on the arse of whatever is in front, we should be seeing an updated version in 07. Wicked

IMO the GSXR is still top dog, if the GSXR didnt exsist i used to say i'd buy the ZX10R (05) but the new one, i've lost faith in the big K, i would've brought an R1, but it's just too pretty for me to be serious, i would buy the Honda as my next, yes the honda, the changes to it have made it a worthy bike of going in my garage, so well done to Honda, they're on the right track, we've got 07 for the new R1 and i have to wonder if the big K will do something to the ZX10R in face of some of the reports.

So place your votes, weather it be based on looks, performance, the bike you have, the bike you wish to own, base it on facts alone, base it on whats in your heart.

What is the peoples (KB) litre bike of the year?

[SARGE]

you know which one i choose ..

[Fishy]

I'd go

1st place - Suzuki
2nd place - Yamaha
3rd place - Kawasaki
4th place - Honda

[loosebruce]

you know which one i choose ..

The one i have in my garage? :blip:

[loosebruce]

My four would be:

1. GSXR
2. CBR
3. R1
4. ZX10R

[The_Dover]

I'd say the ZX10.

[White trash]

Hey! I took that pic of the Gixxer! Where's me fucken royalties?

Edit: On the subject of which is better, as I've not sampled the 06ZX10 or the Blade, I'll reserve judgement.

[SimJen]

The Gixxer is still king, fastest of the bunch and truly cutting edge looks....although not to everyones tastes.
The R1 is supposed to be the better road bike, and the CBR is now almost on a par but loses out on top end and engine performance.
The ZX10 looks like poo with those gay pipes and although having a powerful motor is not up to par with putting down the power.....
Rumour has it Honda will be releasing a heap of new models in 07 and the CBR may well be updated.

[DMNTD]

Hard one for me to answer without cringing to be honest. I voted for the ZX10R...incase now one else did...but the brain votes for the Gayixr as it is prolly the *best* all round bike. :shutup:
Personally I do like the look of the ZX10R's which is why I bought mine. To me they all perform so closely on the track that it comes down to comfort and asthetics.
Also...I got sick of turning up for rides and seeing so many bikes the same as mine. I might like sheep,but I refuse to be one...
Unfortunately I still gotta say that the Suzi is on top :angry:

PS: The other two bikes do zero for me and I haven't ridden either therefore I dunno

[The_Dover]

I'd say the ZX10.

Sorry, that was Maurice's tourettes.

Gixxer of course, it's a no brainer.

[SimJen]

Yeah its all a matter of personal taste and brand loyalty.
I prefer the Gixxer cause its the quickest in the right hands on a track.....
But most owners on the road would be hard pressed to push them as hard as they do in the magazines.
The latest PB magazine said the R1 was better, but in reality they tested in 2deg C conditions on a shit Bruntingthorpe (not even a proper circuit)....and previously in better conditions the Gixxer kicked R1 butt with fastest laptime ever. Something the R1 was still miles away from in the new test. It was just a test of who was fastest on a shitty day....

[loosebruce]

Fair enough TLrider, i know what you mean about those custards lol!

Yea at the end of the day most people would be hard pressed to tell em apart, i for one woudl prolly be jsut as fast on the road on any of the four bikes, although i'd be hard pressed to beat my new bike on the track with any other of the Jap offerings in stcok tirm.

Gixxer thou with fancy suspension?

[Lazy7]

the yamaha for looks
the honda for ridability
the suzuki for power/reliability
the kawakid for the colour


tough choice. but i am a poser so i choose the yammy

[James Deuce]

Yamaha FZ1S

[Mental Trousers]

1st ZX10
2nd R1
3rd GSXR & CBR

Why? Would you believe it's mainly on looks!! All 4 of those bikes perform way beyond my abilities so it's comes down to looks/image.

The ZX10 looks the meanest to me and is most likely to standout in a crowd. I like bikes that standout (after all, mine has pink bits). The R1 is 2nd because it too stands out, however, it's because it's pretty but still aggressive looking. The other 2 are last because I find the look of them to be kinda bland, although with the GSXR it's more because they fail to stand out in the crowd cos theres too bloody many of them.

Hardcase cos I prefer function over form most of the time. If it was the 600's we're talking about, well, that's a whole different kettle of fish cos then it's function first.

[Quasievil]

This thread is pointless, its like doing the same thing in a car forum, could you imagine the winner of the poll???? Toyota.
All of those that drive ferrari's or a real performance machine sit back and laugh their fucking heads off.

SUZUKI the TOYOTA of the bike world will of course get the most votes.

:wait:

[Matt Bleck]

I've never riden any of these bikes, and if I was gonna get a new one it would have to be a 750. But the poll is all about thou's so my money is on the Gixxer.

Hahaha, Let me interpert that, what no Ducati option!!!

I thought about it, but it was the Jap bikes that gets all tested, and really you'd have to compare the $60,000 999R to get near the stock Jappa's, and thats not real world shit.

Nice fishing hook Bret.

[ZeroIndex]

Hahaha, Let me interpert that, what no Ducati option!!!
completely..

although.. out of that list, I'd choose the Yamaha R1, and after that, a battle between the Honda & Kwaka.. the Gixxer is good, but it's too 'Garden Variety'

[Kornholio]

Hahaha, Let me interpert that, what no Ducati option!!!

Lol was just about to say that :D

Wheres the MV thou option too?

[SARGE]

Wheres the MV thou option too?


i'd have to change my vote if MV was there ... :first:

[Uncle B]

GSXR....cause I got one and love it.
R1.....looks cool and is the quiet performer.
CBR.....best front end but needs more power.






ZX10.......plain fucken ugly.

[Quasievil]

Compare to what exactly, a ducati aint in the same league as a stock Suzuki?, are you insane????

Fuck a ducati wins on most fronts to a stock Suzuki

[Cajun]

i am gonna bit a sit of the fence here, but they are all different suited, some are more track focus, where others are more road focus,

So what it boils down, you buy which ever one gives you the bigger hardon, and suits your puprose.

Personally, with the 06 1litre bikes i would buy the r1, all the others do not really turn me on.

[kawaman]

Simple. ZX-10R because I have one :yes: I would be no faster or slower on any of the others. Pure unashamed brand loyalty for me I'm afraid.

[DMNTD]

...ZX10.......plain fucken ugly.
Well I do agree that my *currently* standard pipes do look fugly from the rear....which is all you saw disappearing into yonder distance :blip:

[WRT]

Given the choice . . . I went with none of them. Dont get me wrong, I got a lot of respect for them and what they can do, but they just seem to be lacking somehow. I dont want to use the term "no soul" cause its the same wanky shit that all riders with Aprilia's/Ducati's/Moto guzi's/etc spout forth. And if anything, I think its the other way around - its not that they have no soul, its just that they dont tug at my soul.

But, seeing as those are the four options I guess I'll give them a rating.

So, my choice, on looks - the R1. Every day. To look at, its sultry, its sexy, its the bike you're proud to take home to meet Mum. The CBR looks like a bike. Nothing more, nothing less. The GSXR I think looks good too, but I'm sick of looking at it. It'll turn my head again when they redesign it and for a short period it wont be every second bike I see on the road. And as for the ZX? Well, if I caught a fish that ugly I'd cut the line just so I wouldnt have to share the boat with it. And the green - oh dear lord, that green . . . someone needs to tell them that if they want to go green, there are far better shades than that one.

For the last couple of years, from all accounts the GSXR is the one to go for if you want the fastest way around a track. But, at the end of the day, if we were stuck with just those four options, I'd take an R1. While I hate to pick a bike solely on looks, I just wont ever find the limits on any one of them, so the fact that one is a poofteenth faster on a lap is not of huge importance to me. And the R1 is no longer the bike you see on every corner, where as the GSXR is.

Which is proof that in terms of marketing, specifications sell bikes, plain and simple. Meanwhile, I'm happy with my Italian mistress. She may have cost me more than a Jap thou, and in a straight line she may not be as fast. But the way she looks in that red and silver dress, and the way she sings to me . . . nothing Japanese can trigger lust like that. And that, my friends, is what stirs my soul.

[loosebruce]

Looks like i had a nice hook too lol, settle brett ya angry beaver.

WRT of the same opinion myself bout that beautiful v twin noise, until about 24hrs ago anyway, when i let rip of 160 rear wheel horsepower through a full Yoshi race system, holy fucken shit, now thats a noise to scare people, fuck me it's sounds bloody gorgeus, spesh the burbble and backfiring off the throttle, think i'm in love!

LOL, well, that's what its all about - what stirs your soul!

Assuming you've gone and got yourself a new gixxer, then its gotta be the perfect bike for you. You're a demon for the track, and that's what they're good for. I aint so quick, nor have the track orientened focus, so my wants are different.

Like I say tho, still got a lot of respect for those bikes, cant believe just how far they have developed. Cant wait to see whats coming out over the next few years to be honest, especially when you look back at what was cutting edge 10 years ago and how its just so dated now.

[Quasievil]

there is more of them around than you think mate, anyway, who said I can afford it, Im just a bad money manager that has his piorities right:blip:

Why isn't the SV1000 or V-Strom on this list? And why just pick on the Jappas and ignore the various Cagiva, Aprilia, Ducati and MV models that weigh in at 1 litre?

Simple, because they're in a different market of course. There's no way I'ld consider an SV or strom, and the europeans are way outside my price bracket.

Oh I see. This is about 1 litre Japanese bikes, apart from the ones not deemed worthy through not oozing sufficient squid juice. Clearly I misunderstood the intent of the poll. Or my penis is huge.

[onearmedbandit]

LMAO. Like most mags, the main talking point (or reading point) is the inline 4 thou's, ie the R1, CBR, ZX10 and the GSXR. Maybe the OP should've been more clear about that....

Like car buyers picking up a rag with a pic on the cover of a test of, say the latest crop (yet to be released) of Japanese supercars, the majority are happy enough to read about them knowing they will probably not even drive one let alone own one in the near future. 'Jazz' sells man.

2nd: R1 coz Darkman knows it's his destiny. :shit:
3rd: Fireblade coz my other bike is a honda so can't come last.:scratch:

I would doubt "TOAST" would be the appropriate word to be honest, Ive ridden a 999 and a GSXR1000 and the 999 handles better for a start, If the track was long and straight ie Pukekohe......well maybe, if its a Taupo track I think the handling of the Ducati would dominate.

PS, I shouldnt be such a shit stirrer, I do own a GSXR lol, im fishing .....apologies....kinda:doobey:

At least the jap bikes all cost about the same (roughly half price).

If you use the extra 20 grand to invest in ohlins suspension and brembo brakes and power commander etc. After the same amount of money is spent, which one would be the best? coz that Gixxer has just become the Grim Reapers ride of choice!

I went Kwaka. They always seem to bring out the best styled bikes and IMO they've done it again. And I like green. As far as performance goes, I have no idea but I'm sure they all do the speed limit several times over to the point where unless you're going to race them it becomes irrelevant.

Art and Science of polling WTF? It was a basic poll to find out what peoples most favoured 1000cc japanese sports bike was, weather they ride sportsbikes or not, weathyer they even ride or not, weather they want the bike, weather they base it on performance figures alone, weather it was what stired there soul, or from personal experiance on the bikes mentioned.
So what does it matter if "most" of the people who voted arent sports bike riders, (whcih i think you'll find un ture anyway), it was a poll aimed at anyone.
But hey everyone's entitled to their opinion i guess, but it seems a fair few have missed the point, oh i made some speeling mistakes and gramtictald errors for you to point out.

Art and Science of polling WTF? It was a basic poll to find out what peoples most favoured 1000cc japanese sports bike was, weather they ride sportsbikes or not, weathyer they even ride or not, weather they want the bike, weather they base it on performance figures alone, weather it was what stired there soul, or from personal experiance on the bikes mentioned.
That maybe the purpose of the THREAD but not the POLL that's attached to it. Wearing my moderator's hat I edited the poll's title so that at least that made some sense. There is no question in the poll asking whether people ride sportsbikes, whether they ride or not, yada yada yada. You say that the "poll" set out to unravel this. Maybe it would have helped to ask the questions? As such it is a very narrow and silly poll.

I can see your point Hitcher, but i wouldn't vote in a poll if i didnt know what i was voting on in the first place, so i'd read the thread first, hence why i didnt bother with a lengthy question/s in the poll, and to add i thought it'd be fairly obvious to nearly everyone out there that a poll with the top four Japanese 1000cc sports bikes would be implying, which is the best, and in the thread people could post why they thought so. i just thought a thread with all that was needed in would directly relate to the poll attached to thus not needing lengthy quetsions for the poll itself? Could be wrong though!
I did post it under the sportbike forum as well!
Thanks for editing my poll title, it seems like a heck of a lot of people were horribly, horribly confused by my simpleness, my apologies to these many many people, i promise not to let it happen again and i shall deem to go back to school to try and pass School C english, i dont like my chances though, but i'll give it my best shot :second: just for you guys.
I'm sorry Hitcher but it just seems like you're the only one that had an issue with it in the first place for what seems a very simple reason, everyone else got the gist of it, why didn't you? Or did you and you just decided to pick holes in my limited education? (very limited btw)

[2much]

Why is it your schooling that's under question when Hitcher seems to be the only person, out of the hundreds that have viewed this, that seems to be stuggling to understand the purpose of this thread/poll?

[loosebruce]

He has every right to question my schooling i went to Naenae after all and i'm pretty retarded! Seem to ride a bike alright though, so all is not lost!

[Two Smoker]

He has every right to question my schooling i went to Naenae after all and i'm pretty retarded!
I agree with that...

Seem to ride a bike alright though, so all is not lost!

I dissagree with that...

[Hitcher]

I don't mind copping personal stuff for things that I post. But, for the record, nowhere in this thread have I had a crack at anybody. I generally save personal attacks for those rare occasions when people really piss me off. This thread is not one of those occasions. If some folk feel that I have singled them out, well sorry, I haven't.

And (for the benefit of all the Japanese 1-litre, in-line-four, fully-faired, 06-build-year sportsbike enthusiasts) out of the four bikes listed in the poll, I have no idea which is the "best".

I'll give you a clue.

It begins with G and ends with SXR.:scooter:

[imdying]

Vote with your eyes then mate! Pick the one you think looks 'Least like puke!' After all, a poll like this on a place like this is always going to be a popularity contest :D

[Deano]

I'll give you a clue.

It's actually G and R, with SX in the middle.:nya:

Sorry Deano, I'm aslecksick.

its the univeristy of naenae man, an i went to university of bernards

[Finn]

Sorry Deano, I'm aslecksick.

If I'd known you were an sickarselicker, I would have never invited you over.

As for the best Jap litre bike 06, pfffff. End of the day, they're all mass produced buckets of crap anyway - Model T style, made for the masses.

GSXR = strongest motor, ZX10r = modern old school, R1 = fatest in first, CBR = best engineered.

MV. Now that's a bike.

[ZeroIndex]

I make my final statement to this thread: I both disagree and agree with all comments made as of 3:30pm, Monday, 26/06/2006 :D

[Fatjim]

Hey, where can I vote for the Firestorm?????????

[crash harry]

I voted Honda because I am ghey...
And frankly I'm scared of the ZX-10. Otherwise it would get my vote for brand loyalty reasons.

Gixxer comes last in my book because everyone and his dog has got one. But lets face it, these bikes are seperated by this much
holds pudgy fingers not very far apart
on a scale of this much
holds arms as far apart as he can and waves them wildly as though this somehow gets his point across better

[Sensei]

" Firestorm.com " No one here cares about them > :sick:

[WINJA]

+1 , THATS THE SMARTEST THING YOUVE SAID ALL YEAR .
HITCHER FUCK OFF TO YOUR GAY RETARDED CRUISER FORUM

[Fatjim]

Roses are Red Violets are Blue if you don't own a GSXR then you are going to LOSE !

Unless you're on an RG100.:gob:

[Finn]

Honda's are red, Suzuki's are blue, One is slow, the other is poo.

[Unforgiven]

1. Suzuki GSXR1000K6
2. Honda CBR1000RR
3. Yamaha R1
4. Kawasaki ZX10R

[James Deuce]

Hmmm. Looks like the Aprilia RSV-R is the best litre bike. Won overall honours at Masturbate, err Masterbike.

[Hitcher]

The R1's brakes are good. Even without the bar-mounted urine bottle.
