    Well you have to ask yourself...do you want a sportbike to ride??? Or one to pose around in and look cool for bishes. Secondly how long have you been riding are you a new rider or an experienced rider? Do you do a lot of canyon carving or track riding??

    Grab a Kawi 636 2005-2006...beautiful bike, has a great torque curve which makes it ideal for the street. If you want a brand new bike...then the new ZX6R or Triumph 675 are great bikes. The Triumph would set you apart from the sea of CBRs, R6s, and Gixxers. Remember friends dont let friends ride Gixxers.

    All true... I had a 636 and a CBR954... the 954 was a nice ride but I loved riding the 636 because it was sooo controllable. Nice torque band and good power made it a lot of fun to ride.

    oh just seen its for a novice rider, in that case breda i would recommend honda cbr 600f sport... was my first 'superbike', great learner, as its quick but forgiving... check out the 2002 model, as its great value for money and got great reviews

    if your gonna spend 20g's on a bike might as well get the BMW S1000RR or the Ducati 1199 Panigale, dont really ? wit them european bikes, the japanese bikes are easier to work on and parts dont cost as much

    i have a gsxr 1000 if i would get another bike right know it would be the ZX-10 or 14, if i had the money it would

    be one of them euro bikes, been ridin 6 yrs, depends on how long u been ridin wouldn't ? wit a 1000 if u havent

    been ridin long, a lil 250 or even a 600 is a good starter bike, i started on a 600.

    haha thanks, yeah they are a license killer, ive nearly lost my license a few times... i just bought a remus exhaust for it, so gonna get that fitted on in next couple weeks... also just bought a small license plate to tidy the back up a little...

    bikes are fckn dangerous though, some ? nearly killed me last month, in return i tried to ? him! lol

    i was coming alone a country lane, and a van pulled out in front of me, dude was on his cell phone and didnt look before he pulled out! luckily i saw he was on his phone and had a feeling he was gonna pull out, so i managed to stop in time... get this, i swore at him, and this ? swore back, i drove off, and dude over took me and slammed his breaks on, so i nearly hit back of him! i went ape ? , he sped off over a round about, so i followed him, trying to get him to pull over, but he ignored me, eventually 15mins later we came to set of traffic lights, so i hopped off the bike, went to open his door and drag him out and batter him, but the ? locked himself in, the lights changed, and he drove off, so i hopped back on and caught him at the next set of lights, and parked in front of his van so he couldnt drive off lol i was screaming at him to open his door and man up, people at the lights thinking im crazy, smashing at his side window trying to break thru, but the ? was all mouth, he got his phone to call police, so i took off his wing mirror, and left him with cracked side window, i tried to smash thru but that that ? is tuff lol on the real, that dude could of killed me twice, or even worse ? me for life, the ? is a danger to the road! hopefully now hes weary of bike riders

    the used bike game in the US is so ? tho

    it's hard to buy a used bike from a private dealer that isn't stolen or refurbished
