            I agree. I don't know a lot about the 650's but I'd give it a try.

              If you are inclined to move up a level each time you purchase a bike, then I can't see that as going up a level. If you purchase bikes that you admire and aren't into moving up a knotch until you finally have a Hayabusa or a Zed, then it would be a bike worth having if you can get your hands on the black with red trim.

                  Hell no. I'm not that bored. I'd sell it for something else.

                      • old bikes are cool but can suck too .. as well as having too many bikes to maintain .one new one is the best way or a good newer cheap liter bike .

                        • ABSOLUTELY... that bike is hot.

                            • I did and all I can say is that it was, by far, the best thing I have done with two wheels. Trust me, the GSX650F is probably the best purchase on two wheels. I've just turned 5K and the I can't believe how rock solid Suzuki made this bike. For the record, I jumped from a 05' Katana 750 to my '08 GSX650F. Do it and you'll be posting within a week about why it took you so long.

                                Now, if the question is would my next bike be a 650F after the Kat I have now... absolutely no.
