Which one?

[mojocho]

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.

Buy both and sell one of your choice in July for profit.

[NinjaNick]

til the new ninja1000 is cheap

That new ninja1000 is the perfect street bike looks like.

[scottb]

The white one looks like an a-flick-tion T-shirt

[Likwid]

get the cheaper one, you'll need the cash to fix it up when you drop it "on the leaves"

lol, no really, get the white

[max power]

the Phoenix is ugly.

[Fonzie]

Quit buying Hondas.

[drew95gt]

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.

[Fonzie]

Somethin' about those phoenix graphix have always made me think "chick bike"

Should be perfect for you Turtle

[Mykill]

He can always remove the graphics....

[alienpi]

Get the cheaper one; install race plastics and sliders, and have fun.

[Beegreenstrings]

Definately white... well maybe red... no white...

does it really matter... go with the cheaper.

[fusion]

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]

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

[Disclaimer]

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

the 09's i'm looking at are both less than either of those. As much as I do like R6's, I want another CBR for now

Yeah, 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.

[Steve Butters]

two 09s under 6k? do they have a billion miles?

and ones 500 cheaper, so thats 5500 max...you also said he keeps coming down...youre already stealing the bike from him, no need to haggle any farther lol
