Well I have been trying to make up my mind on which bike to buy over the last few months. Never really took to the hondas and besides in Newfoundland they sell for 2000 more than the r6, and kawasaki has a nice 6r with a 636 but theres no kawasaki dealers here, so my favaroite was always the r6 but i said ill wait to see what suzuki does well they now have a new motor and and frame and styling for 2004 like yamaha upgraded in 2003 so that got my mind wondering but when I seen the pics I knew there was no way in hell i could be caught dead on one of those with the new front I think they are ugly as hell, so I always knew it r6 and as soon as the 2004 models arive here in Newfoundland ill be getting what ever one they have.
