Now I do agree with this...same with cars and boats...I like several brands.

I just happen to own two Yamaha's and like them but there are plenty other bikes I like as well.

You can ? Well that's cool. I had to buy a PCM III to remap my R1.

Its only in 500 rpm increments. The PCIII allows you to adjust every 250.

I wouldn't own a zook. Mostly because they're uncomfortable! They simply don't fit me, then add in the squid image and looks... Don't get me wrong, I'm trying to ride every bike on the market. Kawi's have been the most comfortable and best looking. Now they've gone the ugly route, I have to go to the next most comfortable bike. Right now, that's not japanese, and not likely to change for '09.

Looks usability Only the mirror glass itself is adjustable, so getting the propper view is tough, and even when you do, all you see is a constant blur

I haven't used it, but I rode with a guy in IA that had an 08 1K. He put it in C mode when his gf rode it. Though he did still wheelie it in C mode too

LOL, You are talking about buying a freaking sport bike base on its looks and how "comfy" it is.... And have the Balls to say you don't want to look like a squid bwhahahahah on A Suzuki? Please pass on by the Suzuki Dealership and keep right on going till you arrive at the Duc store. Me and other riders will thank you.
