Which Bike?

[bigbangtheory 5,000+ posts]

I have been debating a new car for a while (trading in my truck towards it) but I figured if I got a bike for fun I could get the best of both worlds.

Believe me, I have been at this crossroads many times. I want a bike very bad, as I miss riding from back in the day. But if you are doing it to save on money, then it won't.

Insurance on truck/bike or whatever. Gas in both, probably full coverage on both, especially when you are financing. There are a lot of negatives when trying to save money right away. Maybe down the road, but not for awhile.

Now if you can pay one or the other off, then yeah, you probably will, but if you could do that, then gas shouldn't even be a concern, lol!

Not a bad bike..Easier to ride than the RR..but not as smooth or as forgiving as the original CBR600F2,3 or 4. My first track bike was a Hurricane aka: Honda CBR600F1

Oh well...Thought I had a race Fun bikes on the track..Just not great as a daily rider in the real world. If you ever have the time...take out a v-twin sport. You'll have the ride of your life.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

We took out the SV650 ***** it's first year of production...on a free track day The control of the SV's is incredible. Torque...even better. And..aftermarket fairings are available.

I lold, what other bikes have u rode on.

Actually from what I read the gisxer is the best 600 bike out in the market right now.

But I've never rid a 600, my frist bike was a gisxer 1000, then I stepped up to a 2001 Hayabusa, a 2006 R1, 2007 1400, then a 2007 Turbo Busa, by far the busa was the best for me not cause it had a turbo in it...

What is with all the fairing business? I love me a ***** bike. Motors are sexy. Here is a pic of my bike (picture is not mine, but you get the idea)

Hey OP...Any luck on the bike front??? Did you get to a dealer yet??

 

[LiquidClen 10+ year member]

Yeah i went to a few dealers but i'm putting this on a back burner for a few weeks because a situation arose that requires me to start looking for new living arrangements //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
