After much thought narrowed down my choice of bikes betweem

1992 GSXR750 or a 1997 ZX7R

Any thoughts on the better all round bike from general fun and a little long distance 2-3 times a year?

If we are getting philosophical, a dead engine is less likely to kill you...

ZX6R G/J model or ZX9R C/E- should be a lot better bike for your money to my mind.

I'd go for the ZX7. I've just bought an old ZXR750 which was the predecessor to the 7R.

I had a blast on a CBR900RR the other day. Does yours also suffer from the hesitation when getting back on the throttle to exit corner after constant throttle through corner?

I thought I was going to run out of fuel the first time it did it - Then I realized it was just the first corner I had come too.
