had an awesome ride up the hills on the weekend. Just me, ipod and the sound of high revving CBR600RR0

I ride an '09 Kawasaki Versys. I love it, but my first true love was a 1992 750 Honda Nighthawk.0

My husband had a Dyna something or other when we got married, but recently upgraded to an Ultra Classica Electra Glide (I think). He loves it. I'm more content in the car. *grin*0

Really need a new rear tire on the FJR. Brand new tire put on around 5k miles in late August, and now I'm at 17.5k miles. 12k on a rear on a FJR isn't too shabby, and its more that the tire's profile has gone flat, not that the tread is gone.
Oh well! I've got a free weekend coming up so maybe I'll get to that. New tire, oil change, rear drive oil change, spark plugs...oi, there's a lot more to do than I thought.0 -
BUMP..
I ride a 2005 gsxr 7500 -

No it's not R1 1100...
(remove the 1100)
i love the r1.. & that raven is the best looking one. IMO0 -
No it's not R1 1100...
& if you've never ridden before, thats a powerful bike for a beginner.. if i were you i'd start on the r6 & upgrade when you're ready..
I've been riding for 9 years. I've had an R6. And you'll have to forgive me...it's a 998...it will be an 1100 when I am done with it0 -

Sorry i missed that part of you being a rider the first time around.. do you race or are you just going to put a few mods on it?0 -
My dream is to learn to race someday and I have every intention of modding my girl when I finally get ahold of her. :bigsmile:0

Well to increase the CCs you would have to displace the motor and that would cost more than it's worth.. you can put some mods on in and get a little better hp.. imo, keep it simple, cause you're always going to want to upgrade.
I race now & love every second of it. Im on a 750 now that i use as my streetbike and take to the track. its a pain in the butt though because i have to lower and stretch it everytime i take her to the track.. im planning on getting a new streetbike and keeping the 750 as a track only bike.0 -

By the sounds of it you are talking about drag racing yes?
I've done a bit of both. Circuit and drag. (used to have a pretty quick street car that I drag raced so wanted to have a go on the bike as well). I'm too cautious to be a crazy as circuit racer but drag is definitely doable. I was the only one who wasn't on a 1+L bike when I was there though! But it was ET racing anyway so doesn't really matter.
Pretty keen to get a gsxr750 next. Sports bike makers are pretty silly that Suzuki are the only ones making sports 750's these days. Not that I have anything against Suzuki's but if the riding position doesn't suit me then there isn't really an alternative except jump to 1000cc which I didn't really want to do from my current CBR600RR.
I will own a big bang R1 like the above some day though!0 -
yes, im speaking about drag racing. I had a private track rental about 4 weeks ago and i was the only one not on a liter bike. I made some good passes, but always looking to do more. I have big plans for the 750 once i get a new street bike. I've race a road course once on my honda f4i but i didnt enjoy it as much as 1/4 mile drag.
I agree with you, i find it odd that more sport bike companies havent introduced the 750cc bike to their inventory.. its a good step up from the 6000 -
F4i hey. I was actually looking at getting one of them as a project bike. Same year as my RR but heaps less k's and cheap as chippies. Then I'd probably sell both bikes and get something faster :devil:0

My buddy just got an R1 this year. Flat black with red trim. It look sick, and she goes fast!!! Gorgeous Bike!!0
