Default Question: keep my 03 R-1 or get theNEW GIXER 1000

This question has been beatin my head for about a year now. Should I keep my 03' R-1 or move on to the new?? I loved my bike from the first time I layed my eyes on her at an 02 NY bike show. I had my mind set for her, Iv always wanted an R-1.

Not sure what improvements they have for the new Gixxer. Have you checked the insurance rates for the new one? Not sure if thats a consideration point for you.

I think you just answered your own question. It seems to me that you really like your R1 and you'd be hesitant to get rid of it. I know it's always nice to get a new bike but it's also nice to keep something that you've always wanted. Besides, a literbike is a literbike. They're both monsters, heh.

YES SIRR... I pretty much did... I was lookin at them all last weekend, I went to a few dealers with my boy , he is interested in a gixxer 750. Then after awhile I got past that new feel to the point where I started to loose my feelings for her.. kinda like a school crush.. HAHAHAHAAAA
but hands down the 600 is killa in black, and the 750 is nice too... but fuck it R-1 man... I STAY...
