My input on the Busa and ZX14's, its a motor cycle class that still has interest but Yamaha and Honda have both stepped away from. The market just doesn't need them as much any more.
retail for 19k? I'd rather buy a ducati diavel at that point. Would be the same cost.
suzuki needs to step up their game by a significant margin.
$19000? IF Suzuki charged that much it would be like them shooting themselves in the foot.
In this market they would have very few sales.
My bike is fast enough for me, so I would be looking for other features.
But at 19K I'm pretty sure I would keep my Gen I. It's paid for and runs fine.
I noticed that the OP hasn't said what he would do - he only posted the question. ???
Sit on that EBR and it might change your mind
Outta the Beemer, panigale, and EBR it felt the most comfortable. The ergos on it aren't built 4 motorcycle jockeys. I'm taller than 5'6 and weigh more than 145lbs
