Kawi and Suz make great bikes but in the grand scheme, can't compete with the other two from a company standpoint.
My 2000 R1 is a testament to that. Over 50,000 miles. Did everything from a track day to drag strip a few different nights to an iron butt last summer and never missed a beat. I plan on giving it as much or more abuse this summer.
