    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.

    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.

    Ive run out of fucks to give

    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.

    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.

    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'

    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.
    I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy

    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.

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