I'm getting more and more into doing technical courses and beginning to mess around with wheelies. I'm finding the busa to be too much engine for the slow work. I'm looking to add one of the following bikes to my garage just for this stuff:

GSXR 600, 750, or Honda 4Fi

which would you recommend for technical stuff? I want to strictly keep it to the sport bike class because I hate the character of anything else - maybe a stupid reason but that's my preferece.

Thanks!

Yeah Gixxer 750 is the one I would get if I was to get another bike. 600 size and weight but 127HP, only a few less ponies than the original R1.

guess it depends on what exactly you mean by technical riding....I know a lot of guys that are actually going down to gsxr600's since they can utilize the power the bike has on roads/tracks around town and in the twisties. I guess if you are more comfy on the 750 and want a little more power go with that one.....but the 600 is gonna be a bit cheaper, so you could get an aftermarket exhaust (or other mods) for the same kinda money

I think we all agree: GSXR750 kicks major booty [and Seargent and Leutenant booty as well]

I'd go with the 750...just like said above power is almost up there with 1000 but it's best of both worlds....
Actually it depends on the track ( or tracks that you like to got to, are they short straits alot of twiesties etc...), and what you want to learn.... even small bikes can be serious in good hands...

just my 2c

Yes, by far the 750 would be best. But I don't understand all the hubub about the 600. I have a riding buddy of mine who has a Honda 600 and he does wheelies from the gas tank on that thing. And basically on command also. He's a real tall guy, but light in the ass (150 lbs or so...). I always tease him about being so big on such a small as bike.

Gix 750 without a second thought. I'm getting one in a few months as a track bike. It'll give you everything you want and a whole lot more. Good luck!
