GSXR750...

[joebloggs]

But at least if anyone else is wondering so far, the FZS600 was my first bike after passing my tests ( i did it at 20 and never got a bike till this last Jan, i.e. 10 years since passing ) and the GSXR750 so far is by no means too much to handle, i had the concern any sports bike would be a handful, but for now its done as i asked and behaved nicely in town etc...


More to follow when i get on some proper roads, i suspect that will be an eye opener!

I don't think its the low speed acceleration that really makes that much difference between anything over 600cc its the way the more powerful bikes just keep going, 110, 120, 130, 140 etc almost as fast as you can say it and the speed at which you suddenly find yourself approaching your favorite bend is what makes the difference, first time I really opened up my ZX9 on one of my local roads I ended up slower through the corners simply because I over braked, my GPZ would be lucky to hit the ton between these to corners, on the 9 it would be closer to 150, mental.

Wait till next year bud, your going to love it

One down side which nobodies mentioned is the cost of keeping one of these in tires, if you use it in anger, you could be looking at sub 2000 miles out of a rear and I've never got much more out of a front.  :eek

Nice looking bike though
