    As I said, mine was only 2 cents worth 8)

          Bad Boys RULE!! Glad to see another Harley rider on here. Here's a pic of my current bike, it's a '95 Springer Softail that I have done a LOT of work to. Slow compared to the sport bikes, but I don't like going fast on a bike, I like to cruise.



          As for what you should get... Go take a motorcycle riding class, get through it and then decide. You may lose interest or realize it's not for you. I've ridden since I was very young and raced motocross most of my younger years. Seen a lot of poeple that should never be on a bike, just don't have the knack for it. Take a class and find out. Plus your insurance will be MUCH cheaper.

              if i had the money to blow i'd be in the market for a Kawasaki zx-6r. I rode my old roommate's ninja a few times & absolutely loved it. liked it better than the R6 i rode, as well as a katana. and although didn't ride em, i've sat on a few other popular sport bikes (gsx-r & cbr) & could tell i'd rather have the zx-6r just by the riding position & feel of the bike.

                My buddy has one, it's a damn stuntin' machine. Very easy to pull up in almost any gear.

                      I agree, if I was going to buy one, I'd get a regular SV. I love naked bikes, the new FZ6 is awesome I think
