When the new ninja 250's come out we all are interested... the average rider, not so much. They all want gixxer 1000's.

The market for a 750 just isn't that large, in reality. The gixxer 750 is a sick bike though.

The other thing to note is bike width... the gixxer 1000 is a lot wider when you sit on it than the 750... felt like a tank when i sat on one. Even if the weights were the exact same, I would buy the 750 just for the shape.
Well...since that black stunter dude (can't remember his name) is touting a 636, all the stunters went out and bought one. Gixxer 750s are big squid bikes...don't fool urself.
