I cant make up my mind on my next bike. Ive got a couple in mind. Your thoughts?


2005 yamaha r1
Last year of the 5valve when yamaha only cared about power. Still has enough grunt to whip the new bikes but maybe more grunt than 90% of ppl can put down on pavement.

2007 yamaha r6
More sophisticated and well rounded bike, handles excellent but the engine leaves a bit to be desired. It lives in the high rpm and has no low end grunt. Looks amazing.

2006 kawasaki 636
Maybe the best middle weight stret bike ever. 636 engine is great. Comfortable bike with conservative styling. Might look a little too boring.2006 and still the fastest 600.

2007 kawasaki zx6
Why god why did they change the engine!! Styling stepped up a bit. Much more refined track bike but lost all of the 636 grunt.... maybe too much

Help me decide.

Taking a break from hondas, my last 3 bikes were hondas. I know theyre better, they just lack personality.

Dont want any suzuki piece of shit "gixxer"
