    May be looking for upgrade bike...

    Weighing the pros and cons of dumping any more $ into the can-o-tuna. Leads on an upgrade bike in the $3-4,000 range if I do decide to go this route? Yes, I'm browsing CL, but people on here are better

    Looking at bikes in the 2000 or newer year, gixxer 600/750, CBR RR, or R6...
    Any leads appreciated, I need to get back on the road asap!

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    Lauren,

    This is the same bike I ride. I upgraded to it from a 250 and I absolutely love it. Its got 10k on it already. I'd highly recommend checking it out. The more upright riding position and handlebars will be similar to your current bike, but its quite a bit lighter and more nimble.

    Thanks for all the good feedback guys, and Jackie
    Looking at bikes, more info welcome, hopefully I can get one by the weekend so I can join the Ben and Jerry's ride... When I first got the bike I had no idea how much ice cream I would have to eat being around bikes, lol. Sheesh.
