Anyways I know Quik is gonna kill me but after running around checking different bikes out I think I found a winner.

In 2005 the GSX-R1000 re-wrote the rule book for liter class supersport bikes. For 2006 the flagship GSX-RTM is poised to blow away the competition. Boasting works inspired technology and class leading performance, the biggest GSX-R combines incredible acceleration with razor sharp handling.

The newest generation of GSX-R1000 features an engine that produces more horsepower and torque than ever, with quicker acceleration to match - both from a standing start and in roll-on blasts through the gears. It’s also been redesigned to shave precious pounds, making it a phenomenal 8.8 to 28.6 pounds lighter than its closest rivals. Its light weight along with completely refined suspension front and rear give the GSX-R1000 the edge needed to Own the Racetrack.

To own your piece of the track in 2006, there’s only one choice: the GSX-R1000.

I know Quik I know only posers ride Gixxers

ehhh BS … you made a good choice! they’re all good friggin bikes… i think even kawi has upped their standards and not only has fast bikes, but good quality (from what i’ve been hearing)…  
It’s starting to come down to w/e bike you like the looks of the most…  
I’m a Yamaha fan - ever since the gixxers stopped looking like my bike, i think they’ve gone downhill… but very nice bike!!! good luck getting it!!

you going to go with that black/gray theme?

the biggest deciding factor was the fact that I get discount on the gixxer becuase I bought a bike from the them before.

They do have Yamaha at that dealer but I rode few Yamahas before I just dont feel confortable on them.

My choice was either Honda or Suzuki and you can see who I went with. The honda was nice I just couldnt find a color scheme that I liked. not to mention its a few hundred bucks more just over the base price of a suzuki.
