What is ideal in your opinion
Hey what's up? This is my first post but have been reading up on the site for a little bit. The question is I am going to get a bike in a few weeks and want to know what you think is the better trick bike of them. I hear of all this motor seizing due to the weak oil pump but is now fixed with the newer stuff and one has no fear of meesing the motor from doing wheelies.
OK I have a 93 GSXR 1100 that is without a head due to an a$$hole mechanic and has been a year since I was given a judgement and the jerk hasn't paid up yet. So I am thinking of it as a loss. Would you buy one (93-98 since they didn't change anything but looks) and just use the one I have for parts or just sell the headless bike and start with a newer more advanced machine?
I will have appx $4500-5000 towards a bike maybe possibly more if it is worth it. Financing is out of the question so I am not going to go that route as my credit can't take it. My ideas are ZX9,ZX7, GSXR750-1000(if I can afford it), CBR900-929-954(if I can afford it), YZF1000,TL1000(but I hear sucks but has lots of torque).
The reason I didn't put any 600's is because already having appx 15yrs riding various bikes and being 6'3 260lbs, I hear that the 6's would be way to small and would have to beat the living hell out of it to make it perform. WHat do you guys think as you know? I have never driven a fuel injected bike so I could be seriously wrong about strength for someone my size.
Thanks,
LATER

No, carburated bike. I'll probably hear a lot of crap about this post, lol, I'M NOT HATIN
. Buy a 929 or the gixxer 1K. Your about Philip's size from P.O.B. and he's rocked both without a problem. The smaller new gen. gixxer's have problems with their frame's cracking.
My 2 cents,

all the bikes you listed have their strong and weak points, don"t get a zx7. I know you said you weren't looking for a 600 but my suggestion would be an f4i

He's talking cheap guys- go find a 98/99 GSXR 750, or an older 900rr (96-99 are the best though). If you are willing to go with a 600 get a CBR f3 (great stunt bike). All of these can be found for less than $5000- just keep looking.
