The converted

[aff-man]

okey might as well put in my 2c. I went from a zxr250 to a zxr400 to a cbr600. And i have test ridden a vfr400. So here is my little input. The step up from the 250 to the 400 was a lot bigger than it is on paper in saying that though my zxr400 was quite a bit quicker than the vfr i test rode. The 600 was again that step up. But i was used to pushing the 400 so i had no problems just jumping on and going. In saying this i think skill wise doing the 250 to 400 to 600 thing was the best for me. But i think it would have taken me longer but i could have handled the 600. Had a go on Ck's gsxr600 and nhuan's zxr636 and they are loads quicker than my bike. Which is why i don't think i'll migrate into the litre class. I don't weigh much so i can do just as well on a 600 as some fat guy on a 1000. Good fun though and it's way easier to pull wheelies on the 600.

That sounds like a good deal. It thrashes my bike already, eh?

gives it a good rogering up that thing you call an exhauster pipe casue you ride so slow.,

After all this banter? I just brought a pk50 which I am turning into a race bike now as that is what I enjoy the most, So no motorbike for me for now. I took a VFR400 for a test ride though and If I do decide to get a bike I will probly get one of thoes as I travel to mangawhai heads often and I can still afford to buy one even after I tune a bike for racing.

So, completely counter to this thread title, you are in fact "The not-converted"?

The undecided?

Please come back the next time you feel you need some constructive advice....

Im a "frother" I keep changing my mind all the time I really want a motorbike though but racing is on my a list. Racing is way more fun than going fast on the road.

hmm yeah if you are just getting on to the bikes a nice 400 would be the way. Cost you as much as a 250, but you wont grow out of it so quickly, and you can spend hte extra $$$ on some realy decent gear
