just curious...
As title says. My last bike was a Honda VFR800. It's been eating me alive not having a bike... don't think i can resist more than 1 more yr w/o 1... Thinking on either a 1000cc or zx14, due to more comfort and still plenty of fun to ride... plus I want a bike that accelerates faster than my car... lol |

I totalled a 1993 GSXR-Katana 750 and that's the last time I've been on a bike. I keep looking and thinking that I'd like to have another one, but hitting the ground at triple digit speeds all those years ago kinda left an impression (wow, that was bad... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ) on me...and the ground.
I really wanted a 1993 Honda Hawk GT (of all things). It was an 2 year production, aluminum frame 650 V twin that was only in the mid 300 pound range (340-ish?) and back then, that was light. |
