    I dropped my current bike within the first week - on my first trip in to work, in fact, in my driveway. Still getting used to the weight of it. Not much damage to my bike, though - my car took the hit

    Yeah, I dropped my RF within 2 weeks of buying it as well, twice, once on each side just to even things up, low speed pushing around garage as well! grrr... It's for sale now and I'm charging extra for character! *nudges Bull*

    Yeah, lighter than the gsx750, which I was pleasantly surprised to find, and 150cc extra too! Go the RF!!

    937cc to be precise, so 187cc bigger


    And a bucket load more HP than the GSX 750F, depending on what year of manu.


    But roughly 100BHP to the 135 of the RF

    Heck, I rolled arse over heels after being hit in the back of the helmet by a duck! The fark'n thing didn't even have the grace to die or allow me the chance to catch it for dinner. I managed to save the bike from crashing... and stopped by the side of the road to have a breather. Dropped my foot onto gravel...and whoopsy-daisy.

    Saw my legs go over the top of me and I was spread-eagled looking back at my poor bike.

    Could swear I could hear the duck laughing at me ... only thing I had was a few tuffs of small feathers on the back of me helmet

    So don't feel bad. At least a ninja kamikaze duck wasn't involved in your incident!

    Actually, I think the weight of the RF is about par for a sport-tourer of that capacity (800 to 1000 CC). Compare it with the competition - I suspect you'll find that they are all around about the 200 kg mark.
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.
