Jon, if you really want a track bike get a GP250, they are like nothing else-ask WJB.

depends Tim
Get down to Pembrey and let me know how it feels when your doing 1min 06sec laps with the snow falling on treaded tyres and trying to get into the 1'05s

The speed at which Dallas's ZX10R was coming down the start/finish straight I'm suprised he managed to slow down and get around the hairpin let alone knock it down several gears.

so, given a choice which would most go for? Not on the hard sell here, just interested in whether i would be better targetting the 748r as a track bike rather than road?

a track prepared rr as above which does sound very tasty or a 2002 748r in track trim with full ohlins, new renthal carrier, sprockets, chain etc, slipper

Crikey!!!!!!!!!! so much happening in such a short time. Thanks everyone for their imput and advice. I had got a yearning for a CBR600RR. Seeing WJB's at caddie on friday only made my choice much easier. I'd thought about a screamng 250 / 400. I'd also gave a R1 10sec's of thought, closely followed by a millisecond for a ZX10:P

I think I have a good deal with the bike I have bought, Just hope it meets with my expectations.

Fantastic fella - that's a bit decisive for you aint it?

Blimey !!!!

You've just gotta get some Dymag wheels, brembo m/cyl, quickshifter, V5 etc, etc....and you'll be fine

Good choice mate - I look forward to seeing it hooning around real soon!!!

Tim
