Which 1000 cc sports bike would you buy

For spirited road riding iom visits and the odd track day

Food for thought as some say

Cheers ears

Nothing new is floating my boat apart from the MT07 just for pure smiles per £ and its light weight.
lots of pretty bikes out there for sure and fast ones all making huge power - but to me they all look the same and leave me a bit cold.

sat on a new VFR800 yesterday - holy fuck can they make it any heavier ?
I must be getting weak riding all the old shit and 2 strokes or new bikes are getting even heavier.

I've always said KTM are missing a trick not putting their 690 into a sportsbikes and keeping it really light. I'd have one anyway.

I'm with Lee too or an MV agusta F4 (i'd say F3 800 but its too small in size not engine size) or the Dragster Imagejust for the wheels and exhaust

Exactly what you're talking about, only Yamaha XT660.
