hey guys havent been here for ages, dont know why ive ended up in the red. sorry if i upset someone Razz

Quick one,

I am about to do my test and yes im one of those poxy cbr125 owners. After owning for a couple of years i have found it to be useful for commuting to work and not a lot else, it doesnt go fast enough, it feels awful with the small skinny wheels and is only good for learning.

Now I was thinking about hitting the next step and go for a 400 sports, would you think thats a good idea considering or jump in with a 600. What is the market like for 400s is it as bleak as I think it may be (bike trader has tons of 6's for sale at any given time)

Im gonna keep the little hair dryer for going to and from work etc and want a fun weekend bike.

The only reason the sports appeals to me is that my mate let me have a go on his gixxer 750 and I handled it pretty well despite almost dropping my guts.

opinions guys and gals?

Many thanks Thumbs Up

400's are the dogs danglies, i have a GSXR 400 (GK 76A) Cracking bike, no trouble at all with it, will do 130 mph if you push it handlings great, cheap to insure pretty much a perfect buy if you find a decent one, the missus has a VFR NC30 which again, aweseome bike, famously Honda bulletproof job. If you want to shell out on the best of the best get an RVF 400 (NC35) i'd love one but couldn't afford one.

Failing that if you want an impressive bike best 600 on the roads actually a 675, the Daytona is by far the best looking best performing 600 on the road in my opinion.

Or you could be boring and copy everyone by buying a Gixer 600. May be over popular but for good reason, awesoem bike all round.

Your choice of course, hope this rantings been helpful! Laughing

it said spam but nothing more.

my only guess is that i did have a spambot trouble last year that kept sending people crap about free games consoles etc. all my friends, family and posting on all the forums that i post on.

a quick trip to spybot.net (or whatever it is) solved that issue.

I do beg your pardon on that one guys and gals.
