Default Re: (tried a GSXR)

U sat on them all?

The K7 GSXR 600 and the 750 are Dimentially Identical the only difference you could have felt was either a different pegs settings (as they have 3 positions) or it was in you head.

You should get a test drive on one, ull love it.

by the way, how old are you and do you have any NCB. Im only 21 and have 4yrs NCB and im only paying £800 fully comp (Prot NCB and can ride any other bike) on a GSXR 750 K7.

Try Suzuki express insurance with out them my bike would still be a pipe dream

Yep, GSXR;s are lovely bikes. I've already got my name down to be the second owner of my dads 750. Compared to my SV though it feels a bit less comfy, but nothing really bad - gsxr's have never been sports tourers but they are the best of a bad bunch IMO.

Take a test ride on the 600 and the 750, see what you prefer and then decide based on finances.

You sure ? The 750 & 600 are almost identical in size.

Yeah I tried them all but as I said the 600 is the one I have always wanted and in the colour I want too, so I think it is probably a mind over matter thing.......

The thousand was was too big for me and the 750 didn't feel as comfortable, not sure why. The 600 felt perfect as soon as I sat on it.

Suzuki are doing a special offer of £99 fully comp insurance for anyone buying a new gsxr 600 before end of april. You just have to be over 25 and have a garage. They are also offereing 0% finance i believe. So there's no excuses - just go and get one.

It's only a matter of time, you've sat on one and you've been bitten by the bug. It might not happen right away but it will happen.

Krhall;
can you rent a garage nearby?
The saving on insurance should more than cover the cost.

(Or it would in my part of the world, but maybe not in yours)
