the 650 GS is too slow, and the Big ones are too big, and not really sporty at all. I'm 6'5 and I have trouble touching the ground. We've had one F650 GS and two R1150 GS Adventures and they're not my favorites.

i just picked up an '03 CBR600RR - one kickass bike! Highly recommended!

One thing that I dont like though is the hardness of the seat, but its a sporty bike.. Not sure if youre looking for one or not, but if you are, it kicks some serious ass!

the buell is made by buell...sorry the lead designer left harley and started buell, the harley bought them out but still let him do his thing...the advantage of the buell is that it no longer uses an offset crankshaft, its balanced...thus it runs more efficient and cooler than the standard harley motor...you can idle them at a light for quite some time...not having to worry about the temp

not to mention the fact that i believe the Buell firebolt XB9R and 12R are i believe still among the best handling bikes on the market...they are a marvel, dont get the respect they deserve

my vote is for buell, thats def going to be my next bike after driving one...beats the hell out of any other bike i have riddin in the turns...

another option is the SV650s if you wanna go more the sportyish route...or just the SV650...
