So I need a new motorcycle... |
Subject: So I need a new motorcycle... by CentralCoaster on 2008/6/27 17:31:50 Its time to move up. I got the g/f to sell her pos and now she wants to move up to my GS500. And I'm pretty sick of it anyways, too slow and old tech. I've only been riding 6 months, I need something that's friendly for longer rides and commuting, but still sporty and lightweight, but softer suspension/seat than a full-on sport bike. I don't weigh squat either, so I don't need much power. I need to be able to carry a passenger reasonably comfortably and have just a tiny bit of storage, which my current bike doesn't have. I think I want something with a bit of torque. Yesterday I test rode a carb'd Honda Superhawk (1000cc), that bike had some cajones. Probably more than I need. I'm gonna look at a CBR 600 F4i this weekend. I also need to check out the Suzuki SV650. I haven't read a single bad thing about those yet. But the naked version looks hideous with that awkward radiator stuck on there. Is fuel injection overrated? Looking to spend around $5K tops for a used bike. |
