No offence Drew but I think that the FZR would be worth less than the CBR so id probably be inclined to take that one out....
ALSO, i'd feel a bit uncomfortable taking peoples money and someone's bike so i'll see if I can get the $$ myself. Thanks though, you guy's rock!

Stop doubting yourself, you could ride either. The CBR is gonna feel much nicer/faster but much less forgiving. The stuntah will let you get away with murder before it complains. It's wearing Contis between itself and the road, I have a Pirelli something here too, if I have done too many burnouts on the current rear I'll chuck it on the old girl.

Alrighty. IF I can take the FZR out for practice on Sat then you've got a deal!
Now to take out a life insurance policy....

Sweet sounds good, thanks sooo much you guy's and KS34! I would really need to go out on Sat just so that I am confident in myself. Lets face it, im not gonna break any speed barriers but I am gonna have the time of my life! I think that, that is worth $110!! Reckon they'd let me join them on Vivian St or outside Real Groovy for the next few nights?
