Re: Liter bikes, need your opinion please
I always prefered to stand out in the crowd, so bikes like the new beemer, the RC8, THE APRILIA RSV4
would be a first choice for me if I could afford them. Besides, if I could spend 20g's on a sport bike, I would be able to pay for parts!
But, I have always liked the Honda's for comfort and real ride-ability. I hate gsxr's.

Re: Liter bikes, need your opinion please
bump...theres mad people on here, post up opinions!!
before the beemer it was honda then kawi for me...rode all the 08's back to back to back adn the gixx and the yami were outdated...dunno about the new yami, seems sick but i dont really like the feel of it.
class leading HP, most advanced traction control/ABS of any of the bikes, 403 LBS dry....BMW...i think that's where I'm leaning! lol

zx10 - The reliability, the power and the look is all there, plus you can pick one up for 8000.00 now in a year or 2 when bmw works out all the first gen problems maybe.. and if it wasn't more expensive than my truck.
