Congrats.

It's your life your decision, who cares? No reason for anyone to be a ***** to you about it.

Don't worry, you'll love the bike (so I have heard) I left Honda for an 06 GSX R750. Amazingly fast!!! and handles like my old F4i.

Have fun with the 675 and let us know if it lives up to all the hype......the Gixxer does!

88 Hurricane 600 Wrecked
02 CBR F4i Traded in
06 GSX R750 current bike still breaking her in (only 400 miles.)

i've had the bike for two days now, and have only gone up to 5K rpm, but from what i can tell in those 5000 rpm's this bike is MOST DEF> everything its up to be. The sound of the motor is indescribable. I love honda, but this bike has completely blown away my expectations for a motorcycle. it has the most sofisticated ECU i have ever seen. and the bike handles like its on rails. stock: steel braided brake lines (Front and Rear), 4 piston calipers up front versus the honda's 2 pistons, the gauge cluster comes with built in lap timer, MPG gauge, Average speed, top speed, instantaneous gas consumption gauge, Gear indicator, and it also comes equipped with an OBD-II ECU. Which for ya'll that dont know what that is, thats the computer systems that comes equiped in cars. practically everything on this bike is sensored. Well, all i got to say is i think everyone should take a look at this bike. Oh and the BEST part is that the insurance company doesnt see this bike as being a sportbike. My insurance only went up 200 a year over my old 02 F4i!

how do you feel about how thin the bike is?do you think that will get old after a while? how are the lights at night?is it a stiff ride or about the same as the f4i?do you have good shock adjustment?
