good... ass clown

Maybe the Uly is more fitting for what you want to do. They have bigger tanks than the Firebolt.

ehh not as my main bike. I want a SS, just want one that gets at least what I was getting for my ZZR at 150miles to a tank.

I'd love to have a Uly as an adventure tourer though. take a trip to Barrow AK and back! (that's the northern most town you can drive/ride to)

[Trip]

So my bro was reading a kids book to my nephew on the way up to my sis's saturday. It was a book about cars/motorcycles/other transportation. It had this really funny section about how modern bikes use chains and how antiques use belt drives. I need to scan it. It was hilarious.

The SS and X and XT are the same frame and swingarm. Same fuel quantity.

You appear to be a right tall fellow. You'd be surprised how agile the Uly is. It handles the same as the SS. It's just got longer legs.


If you are looking at an SS and you are thinking about doing any long distance travel, I would strongly suggest the X or the XT.

yeah it's both good and bad... good because it's nice to have options... but bad that there isn't one that fits all of my needs and wants.

I thought you liked your ZZR? I've always liked them... why not just get the ins. to replace it??? The perfect blend of SS fun with a pretty comfortable riding position. You want something a little more up to date and high-tech???

I'm telling you... the most comfortable SS I've sat on in awhile... is the 07/08 ZX-6R. Ask Sixxxer.... I've got an insider on a brand new 07 for a rediculously low price....

You've seen it before, and I'm no Rossi. The Uly is quite capable:






My longest day was 650 miles including about 4 hours at Deal's. You can go all day and wake up the next morning and do it all over again.

You CAN do the same on an RC51 as Drewp has demonstrated, but I can guarantee you it's the difference between comfort and torture.
