RE: talk me into it
I was in the same boat as you. I sold my 900RR and bought an o6 1000RR. You will NOT be sorry if you make the move. The handeling difference is unbelievable! The 1000 is smoother in every aspect - turns, accelerating, control at high speeds.
Did I mention the power difference? Oh, how beautiful that power band is! It honestly made my 900RR feel more like an overweight 600 (and I loved my 900RR).
To me, it felt more like I sit on top of the 1000 and it felt more like I sat in the 900. But once I got use to the difference, I wouldn't go back.
I now have a bike payment and I am trying to save up for a power commander. But it is all worth it. It didn't take long to become more comfortable on my 1000 than I ever was on my 900.
I don't like my 1000... I love it!

RE: talk me into it
I too, was in the same boat. Sold my 96 900RR and purchased an 06 1000RR. While I don't really notice much of a speed difference between the two bikes (the 900 was heavily modified), the one thing I like the most is the fuel injection and the fact the my 900RR was used when I bought it, so I had to invest a lot of money in repairs. The 1000 was new and I don't have to deal with anyone elses problems.
Yes, buy the bike ONLY if you can afford it. With an extended warrenty, I paid about 11K out of the door for the blue and yellow bike I have now. I love it and while I had to take out a loan to get it, I certainly don't regret it.
