I would be hesitant to get such a gorgeous bike to learn on... everyone crashes.

buy a 3k ish 600 then pick what you want later.... I'm going to go out on a limb and say it won't be a $13k 750cc gixxer.

if i had an 05 gsxr 750 and you were going to pay $13,200 for it, I would be calling you 10 times a day.

i went to the dealership about 3 months back knowing that i will not buy a brand new bike, and damn everything sounded sooooo good. i would have a brand new bike blah blah blah warranty all that shit and the guy was like i can get you out the door for less than 10k. eff that $9,xxx for a new gsxr600 screw that shit. plus add about $500 more for gear. thats why i am trying to get a used one
