By the looks of this site, most own Kawi's but the poll numbers thus far aren't reflecting it!?~

Are the gixxers priced lower there, here in FL most of the 600'/litre bikes are priced around the same?

Here the pecking order is more or less the same price wise however. the difference in price though small goes like this..............Kawi
Yamaha
Suzuki
Honda
But gsxr's are deffinetly the most common there basically a dime a dozen here.
The only bikes that are not often seen are. zx12's, 14's, busa's, and crap ass black birds."no offence to anyone"

Don't care much for Suzuki personally, but I must say everyone around here has a gsxr. Worm said it best. 5.0 Mustangs. They all think they can outrun anything else on the road too.

I love Kawasaki and was about to vote ZX....but then I voted for the 14/Hayabusa. I enjoy watching those big bore bikes, because they are away from the sportbike norm. All 6's and 1k's have the same style to them, but the big bores don't and they just get my attention more than the others. So that was my vote!

ya the Duc motard is SWEET, it just didn't seem right to be classified as sportbike, motard is in a league of its own. They are going to sell the h*ll outa' those

I'd have to say 1098 - only because the 2007's are basically sold out (I think). Is'nt that the mark of a "hot" sportbike?

ya, but ok what is the one you are riding. and many have several bikes, and like each one for different strong points. one may be better for track and the other street/sport touring, etc.
gues it'd be hard to vote that way in the poll though, so it was vote for favorite and comment

I like the 675.
GSXRs are too common and they mostly look alike so they grow old looking within a year, hell the new 1000 already looks plain.
Hookers and bewbies rawk!

+1 that 675 is HAWT HAWT HAWT. And the top of all the performance charts for its class in 06 and '07.
A drawback I see is parts are so much more readily available and cheaper for the jap bikes

Also the 675 is suffering from reliability issues(electrical and internal engine) and excessive heat while riding around town.
It's a sweet badass bike...
...but I wouldn't own one with my own money.
