I have just bought a GSXR 1000 K1 and boy is this the bike to own. I have owned a Blade, R1, Gsxr 600 and a Gsx 1300 R and this bike has all the good points of all the previous bikes. The reason I bought the Gixxer was due to my wife wanting to get back into riding and the Busa being too heavy for her (This is not a sexist comment girls, but just the truth!) We both love it! Here`s to the summer 2004.
