Damn. I leave for a bit and we get one hell of a slide.

I was referring more to the engine size. I said Race Replica as in they are desgined to look like race bikes.

When I get another bike I want one with more low end pop but nothing like a Litre. A 750-800cc bike would be nice. I was curious that if enough interest was sparked maybe the manufactures would try to compete with each other in the 750-800cc class.

Oh yeah. The R7 was very limited production and I think my buddy found one here in America. They wanted only $30,000 for it. But from what I understand they were badass.

Go 1000 VTwin... it's not gonna have the top end of a I4 Litre... but it'll have more Tq and way sooner.

Or if funds permit, the Duc 848

Exactly that is the bike he is describing when he says 800cc race replica in my opinion. I say you get one of those I want one.

Ducati 848 is nice but funds aren't even close.

I thought about a Triumph 675 but some said it dosn't feel much faster than a normal 600. So it will probably be a GSXR750 when I do get another one.

As for the 1000cc V-twins. I rode my buddy's RC51 and loved the power and snap but really wasn't a huge fan of it. Felt heavy and turned odd to me. Then we raced to about 70mph and I maintained the lead until then. After that he walked away from me but I rarely go above 100mph.

It'd be nice if they came out with some 700-800cc sport bikes but I guess Suzuki will be it for a long time.

The Duc 848 isn't really that much more than a 600. Hell the race editions are getting their asses spanked by the 600RR across the pond.

a 750 is a great street size. From what i understand... the 800cc size is tenuous at best. they wanted to slow the bikes down but now they more than make up for it by being peaky and quicker in the corners... so they may change something again.

And yeah the R7 was bad, but was comparatively weak stock. It was the race ecm and other kit parts that made it a monster! Yamaha made just enough to make it legal to race in production series. Given the chance id get one too.
