    Hmmm

    Don't think I've ever bought a bike in the fall before?
    Would this be a good time to buy something? I'm confused

    Those days are long gone
    I'm in deep thought....used 06 R?(the smartest choice) new 07 R? (a deal almost to good to be true), or a new 08 R?

    The 08 was a crazy trade I offered the dealer, even trade my R7 for a new 08 R1 in red....so that's not going to happen.
    I need a couple days to think about it a little more (i usually don't think much about these things) but unless I come across a smokin deal on a 04-07 R1, the choices rite now are a used 06 R6 50th or a new 07 R6 Candy red

    Hell, I'd even get another Kwak...to which I vowed would never happen again.

    Whatever you end up with, get candy red. It's the best color.

    Nope, my last R1 was the shift red 04. You're probably thinking of the 06 R6 50th I had last year, I sold that to Windmill cycles last fall.
    I haven't bought anything yet, but I am going to look at that R1 as soon as I hear back from the guy

    I'm a bad bad person It's official, I'm a proud owner of a 2006 Yamaha R1 anniversary It was to mint to pass up and the number$ worked. It could use one of my 3-4 hour wash, clean and wax jobs...but I'll save that for when the snow flies. It's pretty much stock except for frame sliders and a Lo-Jack system

    Boo, I wanna know the reasons why. Tell us.

    All of you saying you won't ride X brand, what brand and why not?

    Personally I like the best equipment for job, regardless who's name is on it. Given a good bike, I can't think of any name/logo on it that would cause me not to ride it.

    (Obviously I can think of lots of specific bikes I wouldn't ride, although probably from every manufacturer, so don't go there. )

    Congrats on the new ride.

    I saw that, it's about time you bought a Tard...you've been talking about it for 1080 days now. You dirt road riding it or what? That's where the fun is with a Tard.
    Good deals are popping up for sure...new and used
