    We know you love your bike. Now calm down, go outside, and give it a kiss.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    yep, although experience says the road not need to be quite that tight, and that there's aren't a great deal of riders who can fully utilise their thous or even 600's on an NZ road

    of course a litrebike would outstrip a 400 in a straight line and/or the boring bits between the good parts - but the rider is going to lose their licence doing it aren't they?


    Atleast we agree on the foxeyes

    It's the road, why would you even try? One of the beauties of larger bikes is that you don't have to rape them.

    Heh, hands up if you lost your license on your 250

    Not only that, I'd wager that you'd agree that 400s can be more fun on the road as you can utilise the entire rev range easier and thus live out your motogp fantasies etc

    A thou will eat up a 400 in almost every situation, but I think that focusing on that is somewhat missing the point!

    Yes but you are a noob. What Gareth said below is completely true.
    Buying a thou doesnt make you fast, hell you couldnt even come close to actually riding your 600 apart from nailing it in a straight line.

    Price is 7k.
    Fair price for what it is.
    All you people that dont appreciate a rare and exotic bike in good condition, and would rather have your common-as-muck-squid machines, please walk on.

    Merry Xmas.

    I read somewhere in another forum:
    The straight bits sort out the rich from the poor.
    The corners sort out the men from the boys.

    Do want, very sexy RFV there.

    A lot of people don't seem to get it, do they? $7k is a great price for what is a great looking, great handling bike, in good condition. For a very long time all I wanted after my MC22 was a 600. Only after actually riding a few bikes did i realise that I didn't want one. Now I have an MC28 NSR and i love it. Like your RVF it's in good condition, relatively rare, and awesome.

    Enjoy it.
