What do you guys thionk of the new Gixxer thou and all these power settings you can adjust?

On a similar note, what do you think of the Gixxer 750?
Have you tried getting an insurance quote for either?

Nothing wrong with the bike you have.

No quotes yet....just thinking out loud.

The R6 is great. Just wanted something newer as the warranty is running out now.

My bike has lots of power settings, all dependant on throttle position - who needs a 3 way switch?

I doubt it

I just don't like the styling, especially the exhausts

I like this comment though - he should be back at the next round in 2 weeks time

Can you imagine if it was one of those girly footballers "It's unlikey he'll be back for the next 6 months"
