Well I'm already thinking about my next bike. The FZ6R is so much fun, would not a more capable bike even be that much more fun?
I know the R1 has crazy power and speed, but it also (I assume) has great brakes and handling. Probably a handful at first and I'm sure it comes with a significant learning curve, which is part of the attraction.
I look at a lot of bikes in the $12-20K range and I always come back to 2, the R1 and the Triumph Sprint ST.
I'm wondering if anyone here has been on an R1 and if so what they thought of it.
Is it a practical bike for the street/highway or just for the track?
BTW my wife is not too keen on me already looking at another bike when I just bought one this year. But it's fun to dream.
