GEORGE!

What bike is it that you have now? a 650 right?

I was thinking of upgrading this year to an SS bike such as a GSXR600. I was curious as to how do you compare the sport touring and SS bike. I obviously know the difference to both. however, I've spoken to folks who've had them both and that are avid riders yet they favor the Sport touring like the one i have now.

VFR800

SS bikes good for the track, that's about it IMO. Hard on the body

Put bottoms on those and an impeller in the center, and you could brew some liquor.

Got my wheels and tires in today.





A lil more stretch in the rear than I'd like, but Michelin doesn't make the PSS in 255 17" at the moment so I had to stick to 245... oh well. I love the tire.

hm... I don't know what it is about a Gsxr600 that really catches my eye. I really hoped to get one. And i would be taking the HOV home majority of the time so the wind helps push me up while i ride, allowing the weight to be less on the wrists...

I mean, there's no NEED for one. I just really like how they look and sound. My bike now is great, tho.
