<-- Honda-fan (no surprise there!)

If you do get the VFR, stock up on RRs because Hondas go through those like a knife through butter.

you would be a fool to take anything less than that vfr 750. my buddy just sold his today and it would keep up with my 900RR easy.. and looks better than that ugly vfr and yzf

They were all about the same price, but I didn't end up getting any of these.

But I did manage to find a '94 CBR600 w/5k miles on it, brand new paint job, very well maintained. I'll get pics as soon as I get it up to Flagsatff.

Thanks for all your help!
