go with a GSX-R 750...
even though it's bigger than what you want, you will be perfectly happy with
it...

Subject: DML: motorcycle picks (off topic)
Well, here's an off topic question for you guys. I'm wanting to buy a
motorcycle (crotch rocket) speed bike. whatever you might want to call it.
I was looking at a kawasaki ninja 500 today and the style was okay to me,
but my friends who have bikes tell me I'm gonna get dusted by everything on
the road. I want to start out with something nice becaues I'm gonna keep it
for a long time.
anyone have any recommendations to what bike is more suited for me? I'm not
a big hefty person... and I don't want anything over a 650 CC bike. it
should look sporty with all the plastics. my current thoughts are the
GSX-R 600
cbr600 f4
katana 600
SV650
or that dinky 500 EX ninja.
the dinky ninja is the cheapest of the bunch and I can get one for 4400
bucks used with 1800 miles on it. The guy works at the bike shop and
returned it for a bigger bike, and he's getting rid of it.
What my question is... "am I going to be happy with the performance of the
500, or should I spend a little more now and get a 600?" I don't want to
have the ABSOLUTE fastest thing on the road, just somewhere in the "mild to
faster" range of bikes. please advise.
