stay away from the honda 1k, they are the slowest of the 1k class.

i personally dont like gixxers, i go to bike nite and i see a million of them and not once do i or others take the time to look at the detail on them. zx10's, r1's, 954's...all beautiful bikes that i like to stop and look at. you should take a look at the new r1's. the 07's have a kickass low end now, heres my 06 just to give you an idea.
