ZX10R vs Daytona 675 vs GSXR 750
 
This afternoon I spent an hour or so in Maidstone looking at these 3 specific machines as possible replacements for the SV should my finances sort themselves out over the next year... :?

I must admit, the zx10 is at the front at the moment purely on looks and seating position compared to the 675 (dealer did not have new 750 in yet...arriving this week he said)
So, looks like I'll be trying them out in the spring then :wink: !

Jdubya...I have not had the pleasure old boy! Your a bit of a big un then are you? Looks like you need to sack thoughts of the Triumph then fella,you be smart and think outside the box. The 675 is the flavour of the month at present,but is tiny. Dont follow the crowd mate. :wink: 8)

Being 6 foot and around 15 stone on a good day, sitting on the bikes at Ally Pally I found of all the 600's the Triumph had the most room for me.

For me the jump between the SV and the zx10 would be just too much.

Interesting with the 675 being better suited - nice choice. Size is a factor with my next purchase. I didnt consider it when i purchased the svs as it was all new to me. Tank spacers helped though. I found the blades are comfy as well for a tall rider compared to their 600.

From the bikes you mention i would def go for the gixer 750, me & the boy tried them all for size at the NEC & we both preferred the suzuki, he's a bit taller than me but we both felt comfortable, the riding position was exellent, seat was very comfy & the screen seemed as though it would give better protection for the average honest road rider.
