    OMG

    Do a search on ‘RF900’ on this site. I have posted a couple of improvements for very little money. Underrated bike with a few glaring faults for two up touring. Like the indicators are in the way if you want to use panniers. & there isn’t much pillion legroom. Fairly easy to fix though & not uncommon, Japs seem to think we date 4 foot waifs.

    F1 do some handle bar risers that improve the wrist angle & Damon at Cycleworks can alter your exhaust if you lower the pillion pegs. I can show you if you buy one as I am out in the hutt.

    I've owned both in the past and rate the RF the better bike so that gets my vote although a ride on each would help you make up your mind.

    My RF's only done 20,000 miles so I might be bias but...
    It's got more the 106hp, mines got a full yoshi and k&n filter but standard it'd be around 120hp I think?
    It has a hard time in the flipflops if your pushing it (keeping up with sports bikes) and the pegs hit the ground too (when you ride with trouble makers)

    But over-all using it as intended (tourer) it's got heaps of poke, comfy, stable when cornering, reliable and good for 2up riding.

    The engine is solid too, pretty much a sleaved gsx1100.

    I've also owened a gsx750f, good bike but too slow for me and too small for 2up in my opinion.
