Why? Let me take a stab at this...


Same reason you've got a ZX6R and recommend the ZX10. Same reason I'd buy another Buell. He's got a Yami. He likes the bikes, the brand. He wants another one.

exactly.. honestly all the major brands are pretty close in performance (that none of us hacks will ever get close to the limit) but we all prefer something different.. always have and always will ride yamaha.. almost got a smoking deal on a gsxr 750 and would have bought it as a trackbike but didn't work out..

Seriously. they do not suck anymore. I've have ALOT of Kawis and I've ridden alot of other sportbikes and it is true they were not as refined as other bikes till about 2008. The ZX6r is the best 600 IMO (and nearly all of the mags) and now the ZX10r the best 1000. Even the suspension guy told me to upgrade to the 2011 10r because they "finally got the chassis right" when I wanted to get a 2008 R1. He said ithe 2008 R1 t is a heavy POS, that a 2007 would be a much better option if I wanted an R1.

They are very close...but Kawis does not suck any longer, yet still easiest to work on.

I bought the ZX6r because it was 7899 OTD, at least a grand cheaper than any other 600. And ranked highest by the mags for refinement.
