Damn! I didn't realize there was a bike section.

I need some suggestions/opinions. I'm a 3rd year rider, I didn't ride at all this year. I had a Ninja 250r. Small yes, but it did the job, I sold it at the end of the season last year. Well, I'll be ready for another bike next season.

And, as everyone does, I want to move up, what do you think is a good second bike to move up to? Taking into account Im a small chick, but, on the other hand, dont kid yourself, I have at least some experience.

750GXSR??? riiiiight. What a bike though.

Just get a 600, There big enough.

I suggest something like a '99 Gixxer. a bit cheaper but still nice bikes. or just the ever so common F4i. there nice too.

The R6 seems to be the best fit for the girls I know.
I used to have one, and I loved it.

Thats true, its a fairly compact bike compared to some.

Yeah, I think it's the smallest 600cc (height wise) so its great for shorter people.

Yeah, a girlfriend of mine has one and that's what she suggested.

I missed riding this year, especially with the gas the way it's been.

I love the CBR1000R's too, but that's only in my dreams.

Get a 600 for sure, but what kind is up to you, sit on a couple and pick the one that feels most comfortable. All the new 6's pretty much perform all the same anyway.

Good luck with your decision.
