I'll admit the 400 didn't last me long (half a year) but that's more to do with the fact I found my ZXR too uncomfortable to do really long distances on, and hated the way u had to sit at 8000rpm just to be doing 95mph. So i've skipped the whole 600 thing |

Yeah I know, but that is with a dented frame, and other bits and bobs buggered.
Its very nice, but the cost of it when is is for sale and the cost of fixing it up will come to too much i think.
I'll have a look at some CBR's |

I think going to a 700 is a too big step from a 125
They are happy to insure me if I pay them for it. Another £30 to be TPFT on a ZX6R
/me goes to check bank balance to book test again |

Why is 700 a big step? You're gonna restrict it anyways right?
33bhp is 33bhp on any bike. Only the weight will vary really.
And IMO a 750 is just as easy to ride as a 125, 400 or 600. You just have to have confidence in your riding and respect the power of the bike.

i thought they claim 159?
and luke, chances are you will be faster than me through twisties and the like anyway, cos you have been riding longer anyway
and dru, firestorms would be nice, but I doubt any insurance would want to touch me, and it is a little bit big for a second bike. unless you wanna sell me yours on the cheap |

From what I've read, the new R6 does 175mph ...probably a typo (missed out the "indicated" bit or something) though... ____________________ TiN
