im not fast enough yet to exploits the flaws in each one to tell which is better. 848 def looks better tho, probably more adjustable too, but im just guessing.
Haven't rode the 750, I just fell in love with the 848's ergos when I rode it that one day. Never opened it up because it was a buddies, but handling alone I'd be all over it.

Neither one is all that comfortable for me. The GSXR has that funky tank flair that gets in the way of long arms, and the seat is strange at the tank so it tries to pinch my legs/groin. The 848 has that squared off tank rear, and the longish reach to the bars would make it rough for a daily rider. Beautiful bike, the 848. The 750 isn't terrible either.

I'm a Kawi guy though Just saw an '08 zixxer anni edition with the chrome wedge/stripes. That would be incredible with white lines zapping past.
