I\'ve heard mixed reviews about the Triumph Daytona\'s... You have an RVT now, why not get a newer one? Also, Ducati, Aprilia, and MV Agusta\'s are nice to look at!

[SloDown]

Me no have RVT...lol

Its a VFR, girls getting her alphabets mixed up...:lol:

I like Apes, and Ducs but man ohh man the upkeep cost on those bad boys is unreal.

I am trying to get stationed in Colorado this summer and they don\'t have many certified dealers for ape/duc.

The scheduled maintanence on them..WOW

I thnk the Daytona gets a bad rep because it can\'t hang with the gix nor the ninjas speed wise but heard you can toss it in a corner faster than a red head step child

[griffinzx10]

Personally my opinion would be if you are considering moving to Colorado, then definitely get a 600 or 750, you will love that so much more in the mountains there. I would get the Ninja 636, they say that it is an awesome all round bike, it has the slipper clutch also which is awesome. And if you are in CO, you have access to a lot of twisty roads and you will enjoy the smaller bike cuz you can use it more. Don\'t get me wrong, I love my zx10, but I know that I will NEVER use 80% of what the bike is capable of.

[SloDown]

Unless you make it a track bike Griff;)

I test rode a 636 and man it has an aggressive seating position...Made for short QUICK trips.

check out these roads in Colorado

HAHAHA! You\'re right...I knew there was an R and a V in it!:blush:

I did hear that the Daytona\'s great for cornering, and if you\'re going to CO, then I agree with Admin. Go with a smaller bike! Knee draggin could be a lot of fun!

[SloDown]

Unless you got bad knees..lol

Man im getting old..

Anyone want to come see my pet dinosaur

[Prettyboy]

all I can say is I love the 04-05 r1, I\'ve had all 3 series and this one has the best fit for me. Skinny around the tank for that 600 feel and quick as hell. I would beat fools up for test rides first before making any decisions.

Also in another month you should be able to start stealing used bikes as many will look to sell soon, but not many will be buying.

SloDown,
You\'re welcome to try out my Suzuki SV1000S. She\'s only a 2003 and you have a 2004 pictured, but you\'ll get a pretty good idea of her performance. Keep in mind that mine is lowered beyond all safety standards :blush:

[LatinBusa]

She don\'t like to ride with us.;) I always owned a Suzuki. For some reason that is all I would ever get. I am not saying that others are not great bikes.

[SloDown]

Im the same way with Hondas..I just like the dependability that the name carries

[neffjohn]

I love my Gsxr 600. its a fun bikeB)

[asim]

Hmmmm, if you\'re looking to move to colordo then you should buy my 4x4 :P

all 4 in-line litre bikes offer similar performance. I like riding different brands and it really comes down to which one you like.

[SloDown]

yeah but test rides on sports bikes is damn near impossible

[LatinBusa]

Yes they are.

[SloDown]

I have decided it will be the Triumph...for the next 10 minutes atleast

[neffjohn]

way to make a decision man :blink:
at least for those ten minutes anyway

[SloDown]

Thats how I get down...LOL
:dry:
