What bike to buy next??

Gimme some ideas folks with the pros/cons as you see it. Im not gonna sell my duc when I buy this new bike next spring or this winter for that matter, its too sweet on tha track and ive put a pretty penny into it check it out:

Honda is what I'm guessin most people'll sway me towards, I want a wheelie-monster thats solid, ill look into those 905 crashers if I start other stuntin

PS: seriously, EVERYBODY who reads this, i want your opinions!

GIXXER for sure!!! I think the 600 first got injection in 00 or 01, the 750 got injection in 98 ( I have the 98 750 WOO HOO! nice wheelies.) The 6 & 750 are completly different from 00 & up.
Or get the thou, beast!!

Or you could wait for the new bikes to come out.
My 2 cents. all the best!

go with the 04 gixxer 1000 if you are just going to be cruising and doing some light stunting.. if you want to get heavy into stunting go with a 900 or 929

I'm in the market for a new bike to. If the only stunt I know how to do and really care about is a second gear standup power wheelie answer this question:

Which bike is best
02-03 R1 vs.
1999 or prior CBR900RR vs.
00-03 CBR929 or 954

Does the less torque in the CBR900rr make any difference?if it doesn't I might try to score a badass deal on a used one this winter.

ok, if you want a solid wheelie monster go for an 02-03 R1 or 02-03 Gixxer1000. they are very easy to launch.

Bshyster, the torque does make a difference, i find the R1 easy to wheelie..... very easy!
