Very sorry. I have a sport bike as well. I meant as for sport bikes anything over a 1000. I think once you get over that it takes away from the corners and looks to the straights. I have a zx6r and sometimes when I'm feeling like a cowboy I take it out and hit the twistys. Then again I met a guy in his mid 50's and ride a busa. Said it was very comfortable and takes cross country trips with it.

I have always wanted one. They are what got me into bikes 20 years ago - specifically it was the Honda CBR purple/yellow . All my friends said, "you should have a Harley not a sport bike." I said I don't care. Two Yamaha cruisers and a Harley later, I still don't have a sport bike. I will some day though. The fire to ride one has died down, and the deal and bike need to be great, but hopefully...

Congrats. As is the case with all bikes, ride hard, ride safe, and enjoy every mile!

you're going to need all your shirts and jackets tailored because your arms are going to stretch! ;-)
