Personal preference and it depends on how bad you want a motorcycle and how much use you will get out of it. Personally, I would get the bike first. Then you would have 2 cool rides in your stable. I have a sc'd G and motorcycles and I would definitely choose getting a bike before I added F/I to my G. But, I go to 1 or 2 bike weeks a year and ride a lot of miles when weather permits.

Just have the deposit down on the 1st one coming into Skagit Powersports in WA state. Havent settled on a price, but should be able to get them down to $8400 or so. Its going to be in pretty hot demand, (basically a stripped/less aggressive ergo R1 for $3000 less). The first one is supposed to be red, but I want silver so might have to wait for the second one 2 weeks later.

What type of bikes are you smokin in your G, man? Has to be a pretty serious setup to be doing that?? Or some pretty bad sportbike riders you are coming against. I had an 03 R6 and now an 05 R1........both insanely fast. But hey, maybe you are......what are you putting down?

ive struck up this same delima. Bikes are def. chick magnets. The G is already a chick magnet w/o the turbo. is your car still under warrenty? if so then get the bike. if you decide you dont want the bike, sell it and buy the turbo then. Thats prolly what im gonna do. if your looking for superbike numbers on a smaller bike, the 06 R6 is the way to go. some dude put straps and a dif. gearing setup and pulled a 9.93 in the quarter.

I am selling my bike to pay for my supercharger (03 600RR). But that is because I have a 3 year-old and just never seem to have time to ride it. If I had the time and freedom I would have kept the bike and NA G35.

Oh also, an R6 is 600cc not 750. $4,000 is too much for a 2000 if you ask me. My best friend just got a 2003 R6 is good condition with ~7,000 miles for $4,900

There is no way to get it up to a 750cc without serious, serious engine mods. It will keep up with 750's but the engine is still 600cc's.

Like all 600's it won't have the down low power of a liter bike (~1,000cc) but they are still a lot of fun.

I just finished installing my Stillen stage 2 S/C and I will miss my bike but I think it was more than worth it.

yeah he said something like that...like he has a jet line and other stuff he juss told me that i dont gotta worry about adding anything to the bike. bike looks ok but im not sure if 4g's is worth a 2000 model, but with that much hp is that a good thing or a bad thing for a beginner

I sold my R1 last year before I bought my Z. Totalled that... I was also debating on getting another R1.

I decided to wait on that and build my M3 Slaying, Mustang Rapist G35 Coupe Turbo first.
