Hello everyone!
New to the forum, will probably ask a few silly questions that have been asked a million times before so I apologise now ![]() I have a mate who has a R1 track bike, awesome bit of kit! But I'm thinking of getting into track days myself and would like your opinions on a 1st track bike. Either a SV650 or ZXR400 are what I'm thinking. Thanks in advance Matt Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free |

Id have a look about for a CBR 600 steel frame. Cam chain tensioners aside pretty well built.
the R6 and Gixer 6 are also good bikes. If you have the basic skills the SV s suspension can quite cheaply be sorted so its a valid option.

http://bit.ly/1ejcKc8 At the minute I'm just looking around, gauging what's around for what money really. I want to get it for as cheap as possible whatever I buy lol! As I've got to get a bike trailer too! Plus I'm building a new shed to accommodate a new bike! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free |

If you get a road.going one you can sell the fairings . So if you want an R6 you might be able to ofset some costs.
