          Seriously? "are" for "our" and "guesses" for "guys"? Are you just throwing out random bikes from Yamaha and Kawasaki to compare here?

          Let's see, comparing the 4 cylinder R6 to the twin 650R is ridiculous. Why not compare the 4 cylinder R6 to the 4 cylinder ZX6R?

          Why compare the 1000cc R1 to the 1400cc ZX14? Why not compare the R1 and the 1000cc Kawasaki ZX10R since they are the same size?

                Allowed and our. haha

                I can't imagine anyone taking a 650r over a zx6r. A $6k twin compared to a $10k i4 superbike?

                Maybe someone could take an R1 over a zx14 simply becuase the 14 is often considered to be the ugliest SS bike out there. Still should be apples to apples though if you're going to compare bikes.

                    well maybe thats why i have a 70.5 in english but besides that. ya i figured why not just go with the zx6r cuz they look better and are faster. And yes i agree with the zx 14 being ugly and that is why i dont like it along with the hayabusa even thow they are fast bikes i would rather ride a r1 but thats just me. thats what the point of the thread was for just to see what you guys liked about the bikes and what you didnt. like how they look, ride, feel, and so or what you guys liked over the two bikes. this is the kinda reply i was looking for besides the point that i suck at english

                        The 650R puts out about 65hp and the R6 puts out nearly double that at just below 120. The R6 is a race replica and the 650R is an entry level twin.

                        It's like comparing a Civic si to an STi.

                          I've owned a LOT of bikes, maybe 30 or 40 (I'd have to take some time to figure it out). Hands down the Honda's are the best made and last the longest. Second and third is very close between Yam and Kawi, and Suzuki's bring up the tail. The metal they use in suzuki motors is terrible stuff, over time the bolts bond to the alum and tear the threads out. Anyway, thats how I'd rate em.
