Haha I don't know what you are taking about. 509 had a ride on sunday, about 18 bikes show up. Now that i don't have a bike, i can't go on this great rides with 509. But im looking to get a new bike by the end of this year!

r6on1 · 10-18-2007, 11:21 PM

1 eye, what are you lookin at getting? stickin with honda??

1eyeblind · 10-18-2007, 11:33 PM

Here's my list: Right now i'm think of getting a gixxer 750 over the cbr 600. I'm in love with the CBR 600 of this year, but i want the silver and white. But the gixxer 750 would be the best bike for me. What do you think?

1. CBR 600RR 2007
2. Gixxer 750
3. Gixxer 1000
4. Gixxer 600

r6on1 · 10-18-2007, 11:43 PM

i think if you are looking for more power, but you still want a smaller framed bike, then go with the 750. But if you decide to go for the 1000, Owen's has an 08 on the showroom floor. I wouldn't do that Gixxer 1000, i would go Honda or Yamaha, but that's my opinion.

1eyeblind · 10-18-2007, 11:50 PM

You are right! I want more power and i don't want a bigger frame. I hate kawi zx 10. They are huge! yamaha are out of the question. Also it will depend on what kind of a deal i get. I don't deal with owen's. I prefer to buy it from prosser. Why not the gixxer 1000?

r6on1 · 10-19-2007, 12:05 AM

i just am not impressed with the GIXXER 1000's for the last couple of years. I rode an 07, and it was kind of a turd. I want to be able to ride a 1000 and be like, "damn, that thing is quick!!" The ZX 10's are shit bikes, and yes, they are huge. But if i had to pick between a KAWI and A Gixxer, i would pick the Gixxer.

1eyeblind · 10-19-2007, 04:39 PM

will see what happens. Maybe i will just buy a use bike and pay it off. But i really want a new bike.

r6on1 · 10-20-2007, 12:04 AM

that's cool, i know a guy that is getting rid of an 05 R6 for pretty cheap, or at least i think. He might take 4500 for it. And it hasn't been thrashed at all.

1eyeblind · 10-21-2007, 08:50 PM

DAMN thats a good deal. Does he ride with you guys?

r6on1 · 10-22-2007, 08:23 AM

I have only ridden with him once or twice. He is pretty conservative... doesn't do any stunting that i know of or rail corners. I don't think the bike has many miles on it either.

Jrodm12 · 12-03-2007, 05:30 PM

Hey everyone. Just happen to find this site being bored. Name is Jared and i ride a 07 gsxr 600. No mods really cept R1 Throttle and removed Set valve o and home-made fender eliminator. First year on my bike i got it about july maybe august and put a lil over 3k miles on it till first snowfall. I work at a Transmission shop and hate working on car for the most part thats why i got a bike lol. Im always looking for people to ride with as i have a few freinds with bikes but most are attached to the hip with there women. See ya later.

1eyeblind · 12-03-2007, 11:04 PM

Hello everyone in Yakima and Tri Cities!

I'm Nette, new-ish to motorcycles, have been riding for parts of two seasons. Started late in 2006, then spent fine months of 2007 in a walking boot (crowned road parking "incident"). I ride a Hondamatic 750 due to a very arthritic left hand. Would love to join you all and ride ... anywhere. =D
