The busa is heavier than the Gix and the handling is not up to par either. Its just a straight line machine basically. Then these knuckle heads go and boost them. Kinda pointless if you ask me.
i somewhat agree... i think its fine to own a 1000 if your ability calls for it... i've rode several new 600's and 1 newer gix 750 and they sorta left me calling for more and glad as hell to have a litrebike... i just think that most guys that have litre bikes do it for the preception - i guess hoping that all the chicks and other posers out there don't notice their 2" chicken strips... i mean come on - learn how to ride first before you step into the big-dog territory



and Cobra, i'm in no way dogging your bike.. liek i said, i'm sure that its the most insane ride out there, but i'm just one for doing the twisties and turns... and when u stretched the swingarm, you absolutely butchered the handling on that bike...

on a side note, i did ride a turbo gsxr 600 one time.. i've never ever felt something sooooo DEAD just absolutely snap.. and bam, the front wheel is in the air:D
