    What size bike will you get next?

    and also will you be buying a bigger bike before you go for/ get your R class?

    i was thinking of playing it safe and sticking to around the 650-700 area, jumping onto anything bigger seems almost daunting although exciting.
    also going from a cruiser 250 to a possible 500+ naked will be quite different

    does anyone plan on trying different style bikes too?

    I'm on a CBF250, and I'm planning to get a CBR600RR. I'm led to understand that there is a small difference...

    This has been done to death...but anywho.

    I went straight from a '89 cbr250 to a '02 R1...no regrets...love the bike.

    I have been riding a zx6 on the track and you learn how peaky 600's are...i will hopefully buy a 2nd road bike soon (commuter)..and it will probably be another bigger capacity bike 700 - 1000cc.

    Went from a ZZR250 to Daytona 955i. Been 7 years since I had been on the 2-fiddy. No problems at all with the bigger bore!

    Get a 1000cc bike, everyone else does.
    It hurts too much to laugh, but you're too big to cry

    Hayabusa all the way. Why get a 600cc and spend thousands of dollars to upgrade it and it is still slower than a busa and last I heard 600cc is too slow for a real country ride and get left behind by the thous. On PSB, the amount of time you are invited to a private ride is in proportion to the displacement of your motorcycle engine and if you have a rare/expensive/Italian bike you get invited more, it doesn't matter if you can't ride it well as you are mostly judged superficially (if that's a word) by what you own and who your friends are.

    hint: don't feed the troll although deep down we all know I'm almost right on that.

    You look hilarious on a 250

    I'll be looking at 600-750 when I upgrade. Then if I ever feel the need, I will get a thou.

    most probable a 600, depends when I get sick of the 250. Then maybe a liter bike after that.
