TL1 or Gsxr750

Which would you guys choose? I really really want a gixxer 750, but the shop that sells them are out untill Sept(www.delamo-motorsports.com). I can get a gsxr 600 for 99 a month and trade it in for a 750 once they get them in stock. I dont know what to do. TL1 or Gixxer750? what would you guys choose???

Check out Berts Mega Mall. They have all the makes but 99 bucks a month on a 600 is cool.

Re: TL1 or Gsxr750

that should not even be a ? the 750 will out perform the tl in every aspect of bikes. Wake up. why do think they dont make the tl any more and the 750 is one of suzukis best selling bikes.

Some ppl have told me the wheelie factor on Triller were better than a Gixxer, but the balance point and handle are way harder to contorl on a triller. And not having to change gears often either. I hear'd perform are nearly the same... but over all the gixxer. I'm just saying this becuase I can save money by buying the triller around 4-5k less that the brand new gixxer.
But that 99 a month isn't bad either. its just I dont want a 600. I want a 750.

Re: TL1 or Gsxr750

get the 750 you'll love it, and go to a diff dealership darn it!!!!! one where they have 750s in stock, if they're able to finance you there, they'll finance you anywhere.

**** berts!!!! they will RAPE YOU!!!!!! check out chapparel in san bernadino or orange county suzuki. but get the new 750, **** is pimp. dont waste your money on the 600. when you trade it in, the value will be about 2000 less then when you bought it and you will out grow that bike quick. and the 750 is like $1000 more than a 600 and you will never be able to get the power of the 750 with a 600 no matter what you do to it.

Re: TL1 or Gsxr750

umm...have you rode a TL before? i would definately ride a v-twin before buying it if i was you, they aren't anything like an inline 4.

i would say gixxer 750. why can't you get it from another shop or have them just trade one from another dealership, ours does it all the time cause they don't keep many bikes in stock.

and what's wrong with the 600? the new ones have inverted forks and all that jazz on them too don't they?

EVERYONE has their shipments of 750s in around here. and in orange county. you must be going to a REALLY small shop. just dont go to berts unless you want to pay an extra $1000 or more.

Re: TL1 or Gsxr750

The only bad thing I've heard about the TL is that is tankslapper prone, I rode one once and can't say that I had any problems, on the good side I heard they are also wheelie prone as well,,,prolly not a good combo but im sure you could just fit a good steering damper. Either way I never wheelied one so i wouldn't know 1st hand.
The Gix 7 fiddy is a really great bike for stunting, again I dunno first hand but I' ve had many friends with em and I watch them do some of the sickist wheelies ever.

Re: TL1 or Gsxr750

POS TLR only comes up in first pal, and not everyone wants to gear they're bike and loose they're top speed, so this is where **** comes true, good things take time, don't ever get a vtwin if u wanna stunt. things are worthless unless its a aprilla or RC51. also tlr is heavy pos, no one that stunt goes from a in-line 4 to a crap *** vtwin... and if they do its only cause they are borrowing they're brothers bike because they're r6 got jacked and he misses riding so much he learnd how to shift in wheelie on the TLR so HA stay away from VTWINS!

Tillers only come up in first?? Maybe if your a squid. They will come up without clutching 1-3rd. Get your facts straight before you spew about something you know nothing about.
