    Go the gixxer, just keep in mind how much more powerful than ur 250 it is, take things slowly, and you'll eventually grow into it.
    Constantly consuming, conquer and devour.

    Don't go the hardcore sportsbike route, a Buell is a much better idea.

    We have enough narrow minded buggers on this site as it is.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    sport bike or muscle bike?

    Which image do you prefer?

    Mitsi Evo 9 or Chevy Camaro?
    Finesse or muscle?

    Only you can make that decision...

    How long have you been riding and when did you get your full?

    I would say go for the gixxer, but I'm biased as I want a gixxer 750 as my next bike.
    What you have in your heart will be revealed through what you have in your life.

    If things are going badly in our circumstances, the answer to what is happening to us outwardly is more often than not found in the mirror.

    unless you want to race get a 750.
    600 is lacking below 10000 revs and licence threatning above 8000 rpm...

    The power is in your hands..... or should I say, your wrist. Be sensible, and ride it cautiously and you can handle it. Just always be mindfull that your playing with more than twice the amount of hp that you're used to.
