Yep..........I have been riding our Mana for weeks now and it is quite a neat machine. Of course we are all awaiting the thunderous v-4............the rep says it will be VERY powerful. We also have alot of fun on the 550 SXV. For wheelies and stoppies and just being a complete hooligan.........it is hard to beat...............

One thing is for sure , these new bikes are getting shorter and shorter. The wheel base seems to be getting shorter. WHen the time comes and I buy another bike, I will keep the 12r

I like the style, I like the fit, I like the feel. Its like finding that one thing that you like and say this i will keep. I got the chance to spend time on a 2007 GSXr 1000 and a ZX10, I did not like the feel and I felt uncomfortable. Not sure whats next , I guess I will see what comes out in the year to come.

Wish I still had my '03. Don't know exactly why I liked it so much. Maybe because it had a little bit of everything I liked. Nothing best, nothing worst. Just liked it overall. It was a mistake to get rid of it. Had a chance to buy an '00 green cream puff at Laguna last year and should have pulled the trigger on it....

I just sold one of mine.Both are 2000 models I bought new. Wasn't sure if I wanted to let it go but since I had two, and they both were red, I went ahead. 1245 miles and not a swirl mark anywhere. Someone else wants to buy the other one.........but I I think I would regret selling it.............I feel like Kerry does, it's a great all around bike. And the styling is not outdated..........I still love the looks.

NEW TOPIC
2009 is just around the corner and pretty much everyone has a copy of photoshop. With no real news for 2009 from the OEM's spare Yamaha's all new V-Max, our dreaming is left to the hands of the Internet's graphic artists. Below are over dozen "spy" shots from most of the OEMs - if you can really call them spy shots - currently circulating around the 'net.
