oh yea....that bike is hot. went bike shopping this weekend...thought I'd be walking away with that RR graffiti edition...but sadly, the 07 GSXR600 just...felt better.
I have to admit that I do fit very well on the 06 GSXR 600. I don't fitt well at all on the older GSXR's. When your only 5'8 you don't alway fix on everything you like. I like the older R6's, but i don't fit on them to well eaither.


being 5'6" sucks even more man.
I thought it was weird how the only bike that really fit me well was one that, in a previous generation ('01) did not fit at all (teh gixxer was waaay too wide), while both the CBR and Ninja no longer fit as well... its almost like Suzuki is the only company making bikes for your typical jap...

LOL! your right. The older GSXR's were wide and the clips on's were very low with that high tank. I fit very well on my F4, but I still don't falt foot both feet. I have not sat on the new Honda's soI have no idea how they feel. Tell you the truth-I don't like the looks for most of the new bikes.

5'6", **** your like a giant compaired to me. I'm only pushing (on a good day) 5'4". I will admit the Gixxer fits me the best but Honda rules. I will make it fit regardless, even if I have to steal a pair of Gene Simmons Kiss boots.

A lot of people feel the same way BootyFreak.

Have you seen any of these bikes in person? Ive seen mine of course the Graffiti. And the Tony the Tiger Orange one.
I have seen them all in person. The sales rep had to show me the Graffiti.
I walked right on by it like it was in stealth mode. Maybe it won't show up on radar guns. [8D]

I still think the red/black 08 is the sexiest machine out there.
