mojocho Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Yeah.. spend the thousands on gear' date=' track days and ice cream cake.[/quote']+1000.But if this doesn't work for you, the pheonix is more unique. I personally don't like the cookie cutter. Blue Yamis, Green Kawis, Red Hondas, etc... Keep in mind though, if you need to replace the plastics due to a crash or something, it will be a lot more expensive to replace and a lot harder to find used and in good shape. Trust me, I know from personal experience.Hence, go with IP's idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drew95gt Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I vote white...not crazy about the graphics but everyone and their brother seems to have or has had a red CBR. I really dig the "Leyla" bikes...if I just had the $$$. Either way you can't go wrong though red or white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beegreenstrings Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Definately white... well maybe red... no white... does it really matter... go with the cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusion Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Red. The Phoenix graphics suck. I can't remember from the last time I saw one, but if they aren't clear coated over though you could always remove the Phoenix on the white and have a blank canvas.

Bad324 Posted February 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Right now I'm leaning towards the Phoenix because since the first time I saw it I knew I needed it and if I don't get it I'm just going to get bored with the red one and try to flip it I'm sure.Either way its going to be a street bike that MIGHT have a small shot at hitting a track but doesn't seem likely this year yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Cool. Now that you've picked it out, when do you plan on learning how to ride it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted February 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Cool. Now that you've picked it out, when do you plan on learning how to ride it?wellll its not the final answer because every time I've mentioned to the guy with the red one that I was waiting on the Phoenix guy hes dropped his price more. So we'll see what happens with that if I get the Phoenix why do I need to learn to ride it, its all about how you look standing next to it at bike night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I do like R6's, I want another CBR for nowYeah, you definitely don't want the R6 over the CBR. When I got that 07 CBR last year, it ruined me on the R6 comfort wise. I never realized how uncomfortable the R6 was until I got the CBR and GSXR. I actually just sold the r6 this week, so we're down to 2 bikes now.
