[QUOTE]Thats one of the reasons i like my 7 so much.
Back on the bike deal; I'm only 5' 7' and i weigh 145lbs. Im no big guy, how the hell am i going to kepp one of these big *** bike ( 600-750) from tiping over? I think i need to get a smaller one, even though most of them look kinda week.
[QUOTE] < my ZX-11 was close to 600 pound wet, but it was also over 130 hp, Im 5'8 or so, and about 165. If you buy a smaller bike, youll bore quickly of it.

Yea you can pick Honduh's up pretty cheap, especially the 600's.
And I can't think of any sportbikes off hand that are 600 to 700 pounds, that is insane for a sportbike, a Hardley yes, I know the Kawasuki's are heavy, but even the 1100 isn't that heavy.

No the weight was closer to 500 lbs, I got it brand new in 92, sold it over 6 years ago, give me a break, lol. Had a V&H SS2R on it ( got it polished of course), carb kit, electric shifter, oil by-pass kit, timing kit, it was a animal. At the time it was the fastest and the quickest stock bike made, now I dont even know whats out there, after losing 2 friends to motorcycle accidents, I kind of lost interest if you know what I mean.

I always liked the looks of the Suzuki SV650. I think it would be a great first bike. After a year or two you could trade it in or sell it for something bigger. I kinda like the naked bikes, plus your insurance would be a little cheaper I believe.
Speaking of, the Ducati M620 shouldn't be too bad of a bike to start on, from what I've heard, and Ducatis seem to maintain their value nicely. I was thinking of buying one, but I don't make enough money to really go for it.
I may soon be getting a 1976 Honda CB750F Super Sport as my first bike. I'm stoked!
