Second bike but I will tell you, or can I ask why aren't you looking for a cbr. I love the 636 but I work on them all the time and they have alot of problems with oil leaks and engine noise. I've had a gsxr and liked it as well but to be totally honest the one bike I would not sell is the cbr I have now. The technology that honda uses is way beyond all other bikes and the durability goes alot of miles. I know that the new zx10r is going to be hard to beat with the 200hp but kawis just aren't very durabable. Johnnyh

hey thanks johnny and I hear you loud and clear. I did have my heart and money set on a Tribal Orange CBR 600RR but I cannot find the seller anymore. I am going for the 636 because it has been a bike that I have always wanted (I also want a desmodeci ^^) and I cannot find a black on black CBR 600RR for a good price in my area.

When I test drive it I will make sure that there are no hiccups whatsoever.

I'd go for the 2 Kawi's - I like their looks much better than the GSXR.

Personally though - when I upgrade I would look to the Yamaha or CBR - I really like their looks better.

There is a Tribal Orange one in the Norfolk VA classifieds that is REALLY well priced with everything included but that might be a little far for you!!!

Next time I will post pictures of girls I like and you guys can help me choose which one I marry cuz you rock
Well, like the bikes... it would probably be best if we took a test ride 1st to see which one rides best

but if I had to make a choice on the bikes I would be up for the Kawi. I rode a friends ZX6R and it was a blast, light, fast, great in the turns and good ergonomics (I'm only 5'7" good fit for me, lol)
