Default Rode an 05 r6 today and yesterday...

A certain honda-tech member was kind enough/stupid enough to let me ride his bike for the last couple days; THANK YOU/I HATE YOU. After making the decision to quit street, I will say that I am a hypocrite and lied when I said I would not go back to street...First thing on my agenda when I get back to San Diego is to pick up another bike or two. **** my hype r; it doesn't quite match the **** eating grin bikes put on my face.

Anywho, here are my riding impressions.
2005 r6 vs. 2004 600rr:
The r6 is way easier to turn with; I didn't have to work at all to make this thing move. It almost felt artificial but I went back out today and it kinda felt neat...The 600rr felt a lot faster to rev and shoot to 15k while staying planted on the ground. The r6 front end felt super light and twitchy; take it for what its worth. I prefer the feel of the 600rr but thats probably just being used to it. Regardless, I am on the hunt for a red/silver/black gsxr750....Look for me!!!!!!!!!! Hell, I will even put up the hype r towards one....

Of course! As long as you have your flashlight ready. Don't forget to point it backwards when you brake.

lol I don't get it. You talk about how you love the R6 and RR and then you say you are going to buy a GSXR750? lol. Can't go wrong with any of them though

lol.

ravens were cool when they first came out because it seemed like they were so exclusive. but when 8 out of 12 bikes in the pack are the same thing, it gets to be a bit monotonous. ill take my '03 ltd. black/red flames please
