terribleturner Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 My boss went out yesterday to pick up a 98 GSXR600 in Cornona colours, and when he popped out at lunch time the noise I MUST GET A NBIKE NOW!!!!!!!!!!! Then went on EBAY and found a Fireblade finishing soon for like £1600. I guess it's the right time to start buying them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rik Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Winter's allways the best time to get bikes. £1600?, must be quite an old one for that. Still 120 odd bhp to play with none the less There's some cheap ex track bikes floating around if you're not so fussed how it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I sold my '99 R1 in Jan - can't remember how much, but think it was about £2.5K. Was a bargain. It's the first time in 19 years I haven't had a bike. I want another one - but think I'm going to wait for the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveK Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I've had Gixers (2) although it was a few years ago, and a Blade. The R1 was good - clutchless wheelie in 2nd @ 80mph. The GSXRs (both 750s) were nice. But I think the Blade was probably the best of the lot - the build quality was leagues ahead of the R1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wont go wrong with one of those. Lifts the front off the throttle in 1st, 160 top end, great handling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeT Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 i can't decide between the zx6r or the gsxr600. It will be my first bike so 600cc is plenty big enough for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Mmmm ZX7R looks nice.. done a few miles that one though... the blade had good miles at only 8.5k. Winter and bikes are no fun:( mines tucked away till next summer now;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Hmmm, I too have pondered the idea, but I much prefer the CBR600, so that is my summer amibition... 1 x 1998 CBR600F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon has a 900 Fireblade in the back yard under a cover that i have now sorned because he does not use it, the novelty will wear off and it will end up collecting dust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 98 FireBlade RRW cost me nearly 9k new. It's done about 13,000 miles and worth well under 2k now. Bummer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's just going to be a case of the best deal at the time. I've got a CBR1000f sat in the garage but it's huge and heavy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
