I Have a 97 ninja zx9r,but i want to buy to myself a new bike.I love kawa very much,but i think that the gsxr 1000 may be little faster.With my kawa i have won almoust all races,its **** fast. But the new kawa is heavier than gsxr 1000,and it has less hp.But i just love kawa.I need the bike only for streetracing. What to do? My old bike is very reliable,is the new kawa too?I ve won in a 1|4 mile run all yamahas,both r1 and r6,honda vtr 1000,suzuki gsxr 750,ducatis 748 and 996,and TL1000R,but i havent tried gsxr 1000 yet.
