look at the lap times... an "old" 750 is probably no more than a second off the CURRENT 750's... so yeah... it's FUCKING FAST... it's just not as light... and doesn't have all the "hip" technology bits.

I'd say go with =<600 end of story... (unless its the SV650) it'll be fast enough for ya... shit it'll still do sub 4 second 0-60 times... and have a top speed of over 140mph...

DO NOT BUY on looks... or how much you love the bike... that's a recipe that'll get you and your bank account hurt.

Trust me... the only view that matters is from the seat through your helmet visor... and ANY bike is gonna look good from that angle.
