Seems like allot of hate for the 1000's. When I went shopping for a new ride a little bit back, I sat on the 600's and felt cramped, like I was sitting up on the tank. I originally set out to buy a new 600rr but quickly changed that idea when I sat on one, even though I liked the looks of it better. The F4 was truely comfortable, but liked the rr's more. So I went with the 1000rr, comfortable, looks good sporty so on. I don't bag on anyones ride, even if it was a rebel 250. Guess it's just me, but one of my number one pet peeves is **** talkin, be it on the basketball court or what not. So....you'll never see me talkin trash on someones ride.....well maybe, my work-mate just bought a Ducati 900ss and he thinks it's the cats ***, we'll rib each other all in friendly fun though.

 

yea telepath, crapital is no place for me, only when im meeting up to go run out on falls lake. once we were about to ride out to our spot and we asked everyone there did they wanna come ride some corners, they looked at us like we were speaking gibberish. i do however have a buddy that was known for drifting his stretched 954 thru lil turns, it was cool as hell, but right as he got good he sold it.

pace ive neve delt with the ducati, and aprilla thing, but i can imagine, where do you live anyway?

 

Only problem I have is with Harley riders. I've never encountered someone on a sports bike bigger then my 600 that has talked trash. 99% of the sport bike riders wave every time too when I pass them on the road even when I can't wave back because I've got my hand on the clutch or something. I do notice that most of the people on gixxers wear less gear than Honda's and I don't really see many Yamahas around here, it's mostly Suzuki then Hondas.

I ride with alot of harley guys......and they always wave to me when i am riding......alot of them have even owned a sport bike....

Aorund where i live it seems to be all GSXR and Yamahas.....I rarely see a kaw or another honda, but met a guy last night that just bought a new ZX-10R, and it was nice
