Re: Which 2008 litrebike would you get ?
having ridden them all including the 1098 back to back, the Honda is the best bike by quite a bit IMO. Kawi is a close second while the yami and gixx feel outdated. Duck was sick but its no streetbike.
Check out the newest issue of SSB (if its out) with full feature on the big 4
Honda may b ugly but not from the cockpit!

Re: Which 2008 litrebike would you get ?
lol i dontlike ANY of the litre bikes....i went back to my old shop and rode the zx, rr, and gixxer,
the honda felt amazing, and if your actually ridin the thing you shouldnt be lookin at it too often anyway...but it sure is ugly as hell...
the kawi felt a lot more liek the o4-o5's, as in it was not all fat and bulky feeling like the o6-o7.....plus i htink it got its ***** back
the gixxer....well i dunno...just feels like a gixxer....
id take the honda if i had to...but i will never buy a litre bike again....

Bull, go to zx-10r.net and see if everyone doesn't agree with me. After 1-2 hard stops (ie-track type riding or aggressive street riding) the brake lever will go all the way to the grips, it's a problem in the calipers from what I hear, replacing the calipers with zx-14, zx-6, or 1krr calipers solves the problem.
edit: I see you have an 08, not trying to start any problems between us with this post, us 08 owners got to stick together haha.

Yeah I'm the same way. I look at the yellow and black one every day. They only color I don't like is the red and silver
