I agree with you 100%.....although never been on one but when i was looking to upgrade, i mentioned to a dealer about an R1 and he said '' mate we aren't as young we used to be''........i also agreed with him...im 44 this year.....

That aint old, but i heard what he was he saying........

Kawasaki 636 cause in 05 when I got brought it , it was the best 600 bike on the market.

I thought the ZX14 was the dream bike

For the noble soul that felt it right to move my thread, and the one that gave me -100 and a red square for starting it in the wrong spot, thanks, I appreciate your expert guidance!

Guess I wont make the 200 posts and -20 I was aiming for to be able to offer people assistance in my area! Bugger!

I must say, it is a nice bike tho!

Wasn't exactly having a competion, but must say that I almost wheelied onto his pillion seat when he suddenly slowed down!

But hey we won't hold riding riding a suckme against him!

As for slow corners well lets just say I ain't too fast on unknown or first time around virgin corners!

The noise welll that just makes it all the more appealing( guess I'm just a boy racer at heart)

SHIT IT'S 12:02 AND MY SPELLING AIN'T TOOO GOOOOOD! ah mURPHY"S

mmm, didn't realise it was a multi-choice, so add 1 onto the upgrade part as well

Upgraded from a zzr250 to my current zx7r in January. Why, because I could. Bikes that made my final cut were the zx6r, zx7r and gsxr 600 and 750, all from mid to late-ish 90s. I didn't choose the gsxr, as I felt the headlight looked flippin ugly. Didn't choose the zx6r as it felt peaky, and I knew in time I would end up demanding a lot from the bike, so went with the zx7r.

The zx7r has a fantastic front end, and mine has an ohlins rear shock and braided lines, so bar being set correctly, its got the goods in that department. Torque is strong, and it can pull (just) from below 2k. Basically, just an awesome bike, that when you ride it hard, asks to be ridden harder.
