I don't know if I'm just noticing it because it's relevant to me, but there does seem an influx on this forum of GSX-R 750 k7s haha!

I can think of at least five very active members who have one, and considering they are around the 5k mark, it's not exactly a cheap and cheerful bike.

What other bikes do you tend to notice pop up a lot on BCF?

Certainly, Hornets seem to be everywhere, there's a fair few CBR600FYs and a lot of ZX6-Rs too.

I like the Hornet, always have, don't know if I will ever get one though cos' it will seem like a step back from my current.

Street triples too, beautiful bikes, will hopefully ride one one day, but don't know if it will feel like a step back! But yes, striples are being snapped up.

I think you tend to notice more of one kind of bike more if you have one yourself.

Likewise I have a K7 750 although its on an '08 plate and in the faster colour of all blue Wink

There was a B1H phase a couple of years ago as well. Think many still have them.

the 750 is a lot less common than the 600. Every c*nt seems to have a k6-l0 GSXR600 - the more distinguished gentleman types go for the 750 Wink , or thats what I liked to think, until that X character bought one and fuked my theory right up.
