Just to compare heres, mine...



I'm not so keen on the darker blue on the standard GSXR-750, pictures dont really do the anniversary paint scheme justice though...

*waits comments on toothpaste colour scheme and chavy blue chain*

I went and had a word with the salesman today.

He pretty much said that I could take the gixxer for very little cash (guessing about £100) and my bike.

I was very tempted until I got my insurance quote. At the minute I am paying £450 TPFT, i'm 20 with 1years no claims. I called Carol Nash and changing from the group 15 R6 to the group 16 GSXR take my insurance up to...£1500

Looks like i'll be staying with my R6 then...

I really loved my GSXR750 it was my first sportsbike after the SV650, it's a bit bigger then the 600 and I found alot bigger then the R6. I'am not sure how tall you are but I found long journeys played a merry nightmare with my back or am I just getting old now
also did the better half ride much with you on the R6 if so then the 750 will be no problem, as for the finish I found that the lacquer on the tank was very poor and I only had it for a year but other then that it stood up well.


Do I miss it a bloody lot and I was gutted when it was stolen
