personally i wouldnt own a Kaw. after they redid the motor supposly the 05s are better then the early 04s. i havent been much into thebike market since i bought mine. but one thing i know you cant be a honda. might not be the fastest or lightest but are probably best quailty. i have owned 3 out of the 4 popular makes and have to say honda was the best. ive owned afew bikes also.
yea on 6s you have to dump it for most part unless your on a new 6 where it has the power of yesterdays litres.
personally the Kaws are ugly IMHO but dont let that decide for you. go off feel and how it responds. since its a expensive purchase. and with a used Litre its probably not as beat on as a 6 since you dont need to rev a litre to go anywhere as a 6 you need to rev and beat it. not saying mine doenst get beat up on when im riding hard but most of time im under 4k while cruising.
last model R1s arent bad but watch for neck bearings and of course the trans. ninjas always had motor issues over the years. Sukis are you typical Squid bike most newbs get them. besides that they are a fairly good bike. so my choice would either be suki or honda but HONDA here
o at 14,5xx right now, been lazy with riding this year but no issues
Thanks for the input… another thing i was told Kaw has a lot of problems with fork seals… mine went early i don t know if they still have this issue or if its just everybike… but mine had around 14k and one side went… and i asked around and i was told… kaw has forkseal issues… so im going from hearsay…
So in realibility im shooting for the 1000RR or gsxr !k…
thanks for the input…
