Ride safe man and enjoy.

There's been a slew of incidents this summer where I live. Between noobs splattering themselves doing stupid shit, and car drivers not paying any attention to their surroundings.

T'is a sick bike though. Enjoy her safely.

Well mine is a 2003 and my friend GSXR is an 07...but mine feels more solid...more put together...the GSXR seems a little loose all around...also mine just feels faster, they are so close that you really cant tell it just feels faster. Don’t get me wrong I think that is a sick bike and I wouldn’t kick it out of my garage for scaring little children!

Sport bikes are very personal and a Kawisaki might fit someone better than a Yamaha, ect...

No different than a mountain bike or a pair of skis. Glad you love it.

id say it was great timing, buying bikes near the end/after the season is great for saving cash. especially if its new. sick bike for sure man, i just passed my MSF course and got my license and am shopping for a used 600 right now. make sure to pick up some riding gear if you havent yet, dont wanna leave any skin on the pavement
