My first 'big' bike was a ZZR600, great bit of kit, comfy too! How about a CBR1000 if miles and 2up are your thing?

Hmm, sounds like you're just about ready for one of these...


Just look at those lines. A classic!

If I had the cash, I'd be getting an 05+ Sprint ST. I absolutely loved it when I test rode one not long after they were released.
the zzr600 is about 25bhp more powerfull than the sv650.

As a note. A friend of my mind and her boyfriend used to regularly make two up trips to Scotland from Somerset on a TLS and a TLR, with luggage and I've never heard either of them complain about comfort on it.

I think I will have a go on all of the bikes mentioned so far. I really wanted a TL last year anyway.

I dislike the older ones too, but that's another one on the list of "if I found a real bargain"

I do want a Sprint. You don't need to persuade me. I just need to figure out how to afford one.
