Im not looking for anything huge a 600, or 750 will do just fine, but which one. Something that'll hold up to my abuse, looks good, and will lite em up. I like the looks of the exhaust out the rear, light weight, good handling, you know that type of sh@t.

In sport bikes I prefer Honda. I think for an all around bike it is really tough to beat the F4i. It is light and comfy and very fast.

I have a mint condition CBR1000F. It is a 1993 with the Black and Gray with red trim. It is a little heavy compared to todays bikes but it is really stable and smooth for long trips.

My vote is the F4i if you don't plan on putting on 600 miles in a day, lol.............if you do, get a VFR800 Interceptor.

this time we're going to have to agree to disagree Ron. I really like the Honda, all of the Hondas for that matter. But in streetbikes, NOTHING... I mean NOTHING compares with a GSXR. Whether it's the 600, the 750, the SuperBike 1000R or the Hayabusa... NOTHING COMPARES.

I've owned an ZX10, ZX11, FJ, GSXR 1000, ZX9, Hayabusa and way too many more to go into.

I work on all of them from the old CBR750s to the newest GSXR's.... NOTHING COMPARES. The 750 is thought to be the best sportbike ever made. The SuperBike (1000R) has no equal on the track. Each of them pretty much destroy the competition and do so for less money (usually).

Have to disagree with you on this one OLD WISE ONE.

If you have never owned a superbike before, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE start small and work your way up. Unless you really know what you are doing you will absolutely get out of shape REALLY QUICK. The sports bikes of today are not to be played with. If you are not familiar with their power or prowess, you are in for a rude awakening.

Good Luck and let us know what you decide on.

Ron, send me a pic of that cherry. It's a passion of mine that not many people know about. In fact there is a pic on my profile of my last Busa.

I will send you a pic! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I agree that the Suzuki's will out perform the Honda's. No contest there, but the Honda's have a less aggresive riding position and they are more forgiving if you don't pick the right line the first time.

Would that be a fair assessment? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]


The Hayabusa is an incredible beast! If I had more self control than I do, I would own one............but I am afraid I would kill myself......and I am adversely opposed to killing myself. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

Mike - PM me your e-mail address.

I have had a CBR600F3, VFR750, CBR900RR, and 3 CBR1000F's. I am getting old and fat so I needed a bike that was old and fat, lol!
