Hey guys so here is my question. I currently have a 05 GSXR 1000 with a full BOZ brothers exhaust system, power commander, bmc air filter and a couple other little things and it has 16,000 miles on it. There is a guy with a 05 CBR 1000rr that wants to trade me his bike has a jardine full exhaust system and a power commander, and his bike has 6,400 miles. both bike are great cosmetically maybe a couple little dings nothing you would really notice. The GSXR has 8 more hp stock and is 20 lbs lighter than the CBR and the GSXR has a slipper clutch. I rode the CBR and I can feel a huge difference between the two. Do I take the power loss and weight gain for 10,000 less miles? What do you guys think?

 

i'd trade !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean realy do you have to think about it ?????? less miles i'd call him now but thats just me ....... good luck

 

It all depends on what bike you like better. As said, 10,000 miles is nothing on sportbikes.

If you like the cbr more, get it. If you like your gsxr more, keep it. I would never give up something I liked for a few less miles.

 

Trade him and we will welcome you back to the Honda family with open arms

 

Do it man, it's worth it. The Honda will hold up better with time.

 

That is not a huge mile difference. It seems like the determining factor will come down to which brand you like most. Just pick the one you think you will enjoy riding the most. Only you can decide...

 

What was the "huge difference"?

 

Id say dont do it because I have a 05 GSXR 1000 and love it. But the ebst thing to do is ride both and see which feels better to you.

 

+1 on testing more to see what feels best for you. i feel like im fighting the steering with gsxrs, but thats just me
