oh joy... a 'what bike' thread....

[Lord Danoir the first]

So, after the awesomeness of yesterday's track day, I'd now like to add a sports bike to the garage here at Danoir Towers..... the criteria:

- Under £7K
- Exotic
- Won't hemorrhage money
- Future classic
- Looks the bollocks

So far, my list contains:
Ducati 999
Ducati 848
Ducati 1098
KTM RC8
Honda SP1/2
MV F4

Thoughts?

[komp]

all good choices
is this mainly for road or track use?

if road out of those prob RC8 for me
track... probably the RC8 again if you can get it through noise testing

ZX6R B1.  Maxton suspension. Full Akky. Power commander. Ohlins steering damper. Black powder coated frame. £3k.

Grumpy.... how is a B1 exotic?

Komp.... it's for garage bling and occasional road use where it will be thrashed up and down the cat and fiddle.... two or three times a year I'll ride it to do a track day.

The 999 is perfect for this as I've been using one recently.

A 999.

OOPS, never seen exotic in your list. B1 is a future classic though and does not require an AA membership like most on your list 

Out of your list it would have to be an SP1/2.

[Carbon_ZX6R]

out of your list as say 1098 without a doubt if you can find a decent one for 7k..

[Lord Danoir the first]

I'll take any on my list

I'm looking for additions to the list

[m6rk]

I think you should buy two yamaha r6's for some reason....

[Alzo]

Not exotic...but a real early R1 in mint order would make a great garage ornement...and occasional blast.

[Lord Danoir the first]

Agreed alzo and I've got my eye on one
