Honest opinion guys


Siacono

Recommended Posts

OK all I want some honest opinions here..

I am debating on one of two things.

1. New bike for next season

Or

2. Rebuilding the F2

By rebuilding I mean

New suspension

Complete new body kit

Powder coating frame and various others

637cc Wiesco big bore kit

Dynojet stage 1 jet kit

Performance carbs

Modified hardweld cams

Modified crank w/cnc'd connecting rods

Shifter mods to eliminate missed shifts (common problem on older cbr's)

Cnc'd clutch basket

D&D carbon fiber slip on

Ceramic coated header

520 conversion -1/+2

Maybe more.....

Either way.... I was looking at the 2012 CBR 1ltr but I am not sure on the fly-by-wire thing

I have always wanted a RC51 but after riding In lines for so long I am not sure about the v twin

Never rode one though.

I'll vouch for the v-twin. but I am kinda partial. a very different kind of power and ride in my opinion.

and plus

you dont see as many rc51s on the road. so there u go.

I would really like a 750cc class bike but I am partial to Honda and they don't make anything in a rocket between a 600 and a 900...

I don't know, I still have time to shop around... might end up going back to a gixxer

yea, and scia you are a techy guy, u can get amazing deals on reasonably used newer bikes and walk away with a big grin. , get an awesome bimmer sport tourer if you have that kinda dough

As for me the only reason i bought new (although old) just for the warranty.
