I dunno much about them, just that I want the Suzuki one, forgot which one, but it's tight. Just for a beginner though.

But that one looks good?? :):?

I wanna GSX-R :) or a ducati monster, either way, that's off the topic, the bike looks clean at least.

Its ok.. I want to hear about what all you people want..

 

At first I was looking at a Gixxer 750.. but the insurance is outrageous...

 

Then I was looking at a 04 ducati 749.. but I don't feel like having another payment thing... They want like 10grand..... So then I was looking for a 01 748... but they are so hard to find... and the price is starting to rise... go figure.. lol

 

So I'm really liking the 01 R6's... nice price.. great super bike.. and pretty decent on insurrance.. Right now it would only be like 600 for the year.. thats not to bad. My focus is like 740 I think for the year.. (good driving record and at age 22)

I'm looking into buying a 96' (I know, it's old) ninja zx6-r. A few things done to it and it's through a friend of a friend, so it's cheap. Should be an ok beginner bike with lots of possibilities if I ever decide I need to go faster and get there quicker. My good buddy has an 01 honda superhawk 996. He says it's pretty quick, for his first bike. That too has a few upgrades. (Jardine dual exhaust, jetted,  smaller sprocket up front, and an aftermarket lower fairing)

Oh ya, that R-1 looks nice too. How many miles are on it?

Used bikes are the way to go. New ones are just too much money. Just ck it out carefully before you buy.

R6's ROCK! I was gonna get one if I didn't move. But i moved. They were rated best outta all the 600's in all tests i ever saw. Those tests also included the ducati 700 somethin or whatever displacement it has. I like the blue personally but for $3500 i wouldn't be too picky.
