They are a bit bulky though........

so in 9 days you've gone from spouting how great the mighty vtr was, how it could do silly top end speed, slagging people on here who tried to enlighten you with the truth........

to bailing, writing off the whale, and now wanting a hayabusa?

fuckin hell...........................

A couple of things. First off I am sorry to hear that you have writtten off your bike and glad that you came out the other side relatively OK

Would like to add that I strongly agree with many of the previuos posts, namely Dover's recommendation around 600's, Pritch where VTRs have more than sufficient grunt in the real world plus target fixation and Marty, enough said.

If you are considering a 1300/1400 intuitively I would suggest that you will struggle, most are a handful and bite back if you become complacent or your technique is lacking. By all means take a few for a spin but I think you will find that the VTR is a featherweight by comparison and probably a better bike than you give it credit, especially in the twisties where twins and sprots rule

Glad you are ok.
Dude, for the price of a 2000 ZX12R or GSXR1300 you could get a 600 supersport only a year or so old. They give you that killer racing feel without the bite.
