Listen homo, If you knew a thing or two about GSXR's you would know that the 2006 and 2007 models are identical in every way except for the color of the plastics.

But back to my opinion of the bike.

The 750 is awesome. I previously owned a 99 CBR 600 F4. It was a night and day difference as far as handling and power goes between the two (it should be). First thing I noticed was the minimum amount of force I needed to apply to the bike to get it to lean. I read that the engineers made the center or mass, lower and more towards the front.

Power is insane but balanced. Once this bike gets back 9 grand it gets insane. I can't even imagine was a 1000cc bike would be like.

The ergonomics of the bike are awesome. I think GSXR's are still the lowest seat height bikes on the market. I'm completely flat foot and stops. Also the seat is a HELL of a lot more comfortable then my old CBR. After being on my old CBR for more then 45 mins straight it caused some serious pain. I can easily ride the 06 750 for 3 hours without a break.

That's awesome. i sat on one at a dealership a few months ago and thought i was on a 600 at first. It felt small and compact...and i agree the seat height is nice and low.

Another TLR.... after thinking back of all the bikes I've owned, it's the only bike that I REALLY REALLY miss... the cbr was nice, the gsxr was nicer, but neither came close to the fun factor of the TLR.

Not sure which, if either, I'll end up going with. A track bike is more likely than a street bike at this point.

Very comfortable bike considering it's a sportbike. Only negative thing I have to say about it, is the handle bars vibrate really bad. You have to put heavier bar ends on to cancel out the harmonics. You can get heavier bar ends for $50, big deal.

I'm going to keep riding my RC51 until I can get a Ducati 1098. I'm not ready to buy one. I'm happy letting some rich guy let his 1098 depreciate in his garage. That's when I'll get mine. I'm going riding in Vermont with some riders including a 1098 next week. I'm hoping to get some saddle time on it.

Also, I may be trading the CBR1100XX in for a BMW K1200S. I did 3k miles on the Blackbird last week and I admit my body would appreciate some of the amenities offered on the Beemer.

I'd trade my VFR for a Sprint RS or ST. I'll switch if I come across one I really like. I do like the VFR, but I'm drooling for that triple.

If really had money to burn, I'd buy a Victory Hammer S. That nuclear orange color...

My Tiller stays.
