Of the 2, I'd get the Honda. But the GSXR is a classic stunter. A few guys used to rock em back before the f4i/636 craze. The gsxr has a ton of low end pull. I have a buddy who used to kill it on his 03 750. But it was a tank. Heavy and hard to throw around. But good for learning straight line idle tricks. And a huge tank to sit and play on. The CBR is a twitchy touchy bastard. I tried stuntin my buddies that is all set up. It's not too easy if you're not a decent stunter already. Circles were way different and very hard to control compared to an f4i or 636. So it's up to you on this one. Both are decent choices. Good luck.

Cold ***** with batteries. I get a new one every year. It helps keep the bike running strong through the cold Utah winters.

Hit the starter with a wrench... Or get an ohm tester.

Re: hey guys need some help please read and comment

you have to jump the solenoid. its probably not a rectifier just for the fact that it would at least try to turn over a little bit...if it clicks a few times then starts up without sounding like the batteries dead its not a charging problem

Re: hey guys need some help please read and comment

Do you have a test meter? If you do this is easy to chase down. Jump the bike ( from a non running car or charger) once it is fired up place the tester on the battery at idle you shuold see 12.(). When you bring the motor off idle you should see a jump in the voltage at the battery, should be around 13 to 13.5 if its over or under you got charging problems. Lock your rpms up at 2000 plus to do this test. Now for the life of the batterys do this and you will see much longer life on them. Get a Battery tender brand tender. If you use it full time when you are PMS'en ( parked motor cycle not the other one) and once a week (over night) during riding season your batterys will last along time. I have a '98 ACE and a '04 VTX and a '04 750 with original batterys in them, And the X has gobs of power suckin' add ons. Also tighten the bolts on the battery with two wrenches not a screw driver

Hope that helps ya, Good riding keep it on the edge.

By the way Hey to ya'all. Hope to have a blast on here.
