i think im gonna try to pick up a bike for cheaper $ before winter ill need it next year to save on gas ( girlfriend is moving to alden :hang: )  
first i decided cbr600…then i decided i love the R6 the most and thought i was positive thats all i want…but now the gsx-r600 is really appealing to me. i DONT want like a sport touring type bike, but out of those 3 which is the most comfortable cruiser and easy to ride well?  
well if anyone wants to sell one late late in the season, let me know

maybe it would take a ride on one to sell me on a sport touring, but IMO they are unappealing/unattractive for the most part

I almost bought a Ducati 749. In terms of performance they might not be as good as those 3 you picked, but the Duc sure is the most stylish, and the best sounding.

Only comes in 3 colors, matte black, red, or yellow.

the duc is a beast man, come on

ride all 3 bikes and see what you like most. gixxers tend to be wider, a bit more piggish. if it were me, I’d get an r6 or cbr600rr. f4’s are bitch, f4is are straight but compared to the 600rr they’re bitch

I have heard first hand that the Ducs are very uncomfortable, and much harder to ride daily… said owner is looking for another R1, for comfort.

so does mine…ass…

i’m not driving it right now by CHIOCE…i would rather let it sit until i get a TT fuel pump so i dont fuck shit up, than drive it with the NA fuel pump, with the constant urge to boost (something you can’t do)…knowing boosting would cause the na fuel pump to want to go on me

Blue book says higher than $5,700 I believe.

If you came to me with $5,000, its yours…

EDIT: More info…

Bike has never been wrecked/down etc…

Extremely clean bike, anyone who has seen it will vouch for that.

It would be an excellent bike to ride daily. Very comfortable.

All maintenance has been performed routinely.

Have reciepts for EVERYTHING!!
