What is out there, what will be a good buy.

Steelie?
ZX6R?
Hornet?
Old blade?

Looking for cheap fun, want a bit more oomph on straights than the SV and most things would be a step up brakes/suspension wise I would have thought?

Anyway, what's hot, what's not and where would you spend your hard earned?

I've been looking at 400's just to tinker with and track every so often, but I would imagine lack the oomph on straights.

Found these though-

Steelie, SRAD, R6.
