    I rode one and definitely underpowered imo and would prefer the R6 over the R7.

    Nah, BMw price point is bang on for the package you are receiving.

    You're probably referring to Ducati. Lol

    I rode a lot of my motorcycle growing up. If I have the chance to buy a classic gsxr, it would be a 2001 Gsxr600. I haven't tried the new CBRs but I'm sure it can hold it's own.

    I purchased the R1 bc of it's beautiful styling. I could've purchased a Ducati but I'm for sure know it will be a garage queen the entire time.

    It's different but I don't notice it since I wear earplugs.

    I'm in my 40s now and I prefer doing chill rides on public rides. I have a cruiser that my gave to me that I have yet to ride.

    My bad, I meant 1999. I like those humped style rear cowls.

    2001 GSxR 750s are track weapons.

    1 thing I don't like about the 890 is the grips. So I just ordered the same grips I have on my dirt bike.

    Looking good Jim! I traded in my street bob last year and got the FXLRS though. Sans “T”. The difference was immediately apparent.

    I’m stoked! Just happened to order it on a whim not thinking I’d get one of their allocation.
    Can’t wait to finally go on longer trips. That Street Bob tank was killing me.

    When I was a teen and got my first Dual Sport it got around 85 mpg (back when gas was about 2 bucks a gallon) and I was blissfully unaware of how good I had it back then haha. Filling it up was less than 5 bucks and it'd last me forever riding to school and work and cruising around :D
