    WTB : FI Bike

    Looking for a bike for the summer. I guess the only real requirement is that it's fuel injected; just do not want to deal with another carb'd bike.

    I'd be willing to look at anything from a 600-1000 but honestly my budget for a 600 will be pretty low. Coming off of an R1 so my motivation is fairly low to go down that far.

    I'm a Yamaha guy but Gixxers are not too bad. No opinion on Hondas yet and probably no Kawi's.

    Pics would be helpful... Looking to buy this week w/o getting ripped off at local sales stores.

    Thanks! Chris

    How much are you looking to spend? How new (or old) are you willing to go?

    I have an idea...

    Re: WTB : FI Bike

    The newer the better but it's going to be my DD into work so I do need it to be reliable. I am thinking about getting something old if it's dirt cheap as I'm trying to save money for a house.

    I'll have about $5,000 to spend by the weekend but that'd completely wipe me out but may be willing to do it if I'm in love

    Buy Richie's 636... seriously...

    For the money he wants... You CAN'T do any better than that. You'll get a great bike and even keep some of that $5k in your pocket... (to spend on track days!!!)

    I'll second that. I am a twin fan, but I really enjoyed riding a 636.
