What happened to the 750s?

Fizz - I want one cos it's been hyped up and looks nice. Never gonna get one or for that matter any other bike for a few years as the SV is all I need at the moment.

It's just part of my dream garage along with the Aprilia 1000cc V4, MV Agusta F4, Honda NR750, Yamaha R7.....list goes on.

IIRC the K6 750 is one of this years top selling bikes.

its one of the best looking bikes of 06.

There's a huge difference between "need" and "want"........ deep down I know that I don't need anything bigger than my 600, but I do want something bigger.

I wouldn't kick a GSX-R750K6 out of the garage, but I probably wouldn't buy one because it's the wrong sort of bike for me......


........so c'mon Fizz, gizzago

superbike racing used to be 750cc 4-cylinders or 1000cc twins (or 900cc triples - see the FP1). 1000cc regardless of number of cylinders was brought in in 2002 for BSB & 2003 for WSB, albeit with rules for different levels of tuning between the 4's & twins

you'll still see plenty of zx-7r's on trackdays, with some rvf's & fzr's (the r7 was never sold to the public I don't think), as well as the gsx-r 750's
