Well I don't really know when I will own another bike. I still own my Gix but I left it in Atlanta after it was totaled. I was originally a fan of the R6 so maybe I would get the 50th anniversary or something. I sat on one and it just felt weird to me, but I know that would go away with some riding time.

I am completely eat up with desire for another Duc. Any of the 4-valve bikes are great, but I really want to find a 900SS/SP. Easy to service, lasts a long time and makes beautiful music. There is one on e-bay in Jacksonville that looks tempting, but I will have to force myself to sell my Honda before I can roll on one.

I do get distracted though. There is an Aprilia RSV Mille locally for $5800. that looks sweet.

Thanks, but I'm stuck until I sell something or hit the Lottery.

I added a PC3R remap with a full Arko exhaust on my old 2006 ZX10r it was SICK!....I had to sell it for a 600r cause it scared the shit outta me in the canyons and I almost lost it splitting at 115mph after I cracked open the throttle. Ended in a nasty tankslapper....

My brother is selling his in Richland, WA.. Look for it on Craigslist. It's a 95.. In excellent condition, and has been in very capable hands.
