bike guys! here's poll for you..
just got the go ahead from the wifey to buy a bike again... Don't really feel like throwing in a ton of money so it will be japanese. Any feedback or experience would be greatly appreciated as the last couple bikes I've had were Ducati's.
So here are 2 that I am looking at: 06 Yamaha YZF-R6S YZF-R6S or 05 Suzuki GSXR-600 GSXR-600

I'v ridden both. My friend has the Suzuki. They both are really similar, but the Yamaha pulled better down low. I liked the handling of the Yamaha better too. I dunno, you really have to try them both. I do think, with these too it'd come down to personal prefrence.
Btw, why aren't you considering Honda? CBR600RR

completely comes down to price and availability and also preference for looks. The Honda is also just tad more expensive but the performance is still on par with the 2 cheaper bikes... less $$ for same performance = winner..

Funny that you mention bikes. I just bought one..
I know I should have shared with the gang, just hadn't got around to posting a thread. Got it Thursday night. It's a 2003, Harley Davidson Softail Deuce. It is a limited edition sled made by the custom vehicle operations team at HD. It's called a SCREAMIN EAGLE. It's also a 100th year anniversary bike.        ***EDITED *** **SORRY SANGURU, THOUGHT YOU LIVED IN ORANGE COUNTY FOR SOME REASON** ** GOOD LUCK ON YOUR PURCHASE ** Let me know when you get your scoot, your in OC, we can meet up for a ride. BTW, don't rule out a Harley. -- A bit more expensive but -- LOUD PIPES SAVE LIVES. Good luck on your search and let me know how it goes. B

I like the Yamaha R6. I have liked it ever since they introduced it. I've never ridden it nor have I ridden a motorcycle since a Kawasaki ZX-9R about 6 years ago but I really like the looks and design of the R6. FWIW, the rags all rave about it. To totally superficial and rating them on a cool factor, the R6S is way tricker looking.
I'm a little surprised the wife is giving you the  on this.

Depends what kind of riding you like to do! I have a gsx-r750, love the way they ride, but as far as quality goes i think yamaha wins that one! I rode a friends kawaski zx-6rr and that little f***ing thing has plenty of power down low and handled like a gem! Goodluck with the purchase and ride safe

Didnt check the specs but probably just a little weight savings, engine and suspension tuning due to the S in R6S like kawasaki with the zx-636r and the zx-6rr. A trackday version i'm sure.
Dont know about SANguru but i'm 6'2 and a good 210pounds if not more and it does get a little cramped behind the screen! I'm thinking harley or maybe a chopper as a next bike if i can afford it!
