Had to jump on another bike.  $3k for an 05 GSXR 750 w/ 13k miles.  Full yosh exhaust and some other bits and pieces.  Never been down, and it's been babied it's whole life.  So now I gotta decide between it or the 954RR.  Halp.

Full Yoshimura Exhaust

13k miles, never down, babied by a nice chica

12k Miles on motor, 36k on frame, and it's been down a handful of times and repaired.

The 954RR was about $1500 more than the 750.  So, what say ye of little faith

no such thing as a babied bike
and i would keep the honda

954 was a cool bike for its day but its not its day any more... setup up to the gsxr. maybe a smaller maotor but its lighter and will handel MUCH better.

Trust me, the Suzuki lived a pampered life, I know the full history of both bikes from pretty much new.

Ride em both and keep what you are more comfortable on.  I went from an 02 Yamaha R6 to a 05 GSXR600 because it was newer and I assumed it would be better.  The R6 seemed to have more torque and was more comfortable for me.  Sold the Suzuki last summer for a bit of profit and am on the lookout for a nice 1st gen R6 on the cheap.

i try not to talk myself out of getting high hp bikes. because in reality eventualy ill wreck it and probably at high speeds. right now i just have a 82 yamaha seca 750. wont go over 126. 5 speed, 80 hp. fun lilttle bike. kinda want to get something different eventually but not really bigger. just different.

You stole the gsxr, I'd be tempted to sell it and make a couple thousand, but the 750 is a great bike.

[brine04]

Sell the modded Honda to some fanboi homo and ride the gixxer.

Yeah, I'm real tempted.  But it's a newer, nicer overall bike for what it is.  May just sell the CBR and throw some money at the 750

There's a sweet deal on a 954 in the FS forum.

[sfa22r]

Just the frame.  Not such a sweet deal.

[Joseph Davis]

All it needs is a little work.  Do it!

[sfa22r]

Looking at places to buy in Vegas, no time for another bike haha

[Perfek360]

i like suzuki's better....go with the 750

[Corey]

954 is clearly the better bike. i wish i never sold mine

[Jorsher]

I wish I could find bikes that new, with such low miles, that were babied, for that price down here...

[sfa22r]

I wish I could find them consistently.  I flipped both for a decent profit yesterday.  Never even saw either bike after I bought them

[sfa22r]

Picked up an 05 ZX6R with 6700 miles, ported head, cams, yosh exhaust, track and street plastics, just needs some Ohlins to be ready to rumble.  Assuming JD is a helpful soul.
