I know there's been a thread about bikes, but I'd like to see some more sportsbike. Leaning towards a 07/08 Gsxr 600 as my new gas saver, post away!

Here is my 06 Suzuki GSX-R600 that I sold. I bought the bike with 900 miles... had it right at a year and didnt even put 600 miles on it. I think I sold it with 14xx miles. The bike was totally stock in these pics minus the rear fender delete. I sold it with a Carbon Fiber Yosh TRC Slip-On, Puig Dark Smoke Windscreen. I LOVED the bike.... but... just never rode so sold it.

07 600s look a bit different than the 08's. 08 was a redesign year.

Nice bikes fellas. K6/K7 > the redesign :(

Really old pic of my K7 in my sig, looks about the same now, but with an exhaust.

Edit: ayo232 how do you like your Icon helmet? For everyone w/ bikes, post what kind of gear you wear too. I sport a HJC AC-12 Carbon helmet, Icon Motorhead jacket, and Icon Pursuit gloves. For cold weather I'm looking for warmer gloves, and for warm weather I'm looking for a cooler jacket. Probably a vented textile or something. Any thoughts/suggestions?

I'm fine, considering I wrecked at well over 100mph. I had gear on and luckily walked away from it with only a few scrapes.. the bike was estimated at 8k to repair.. much more than it's worth. I made it rideable for $300 and took all the old fairings off.

I have a '05 Yamaha R6 Raven. Now it has black passenger pegs and rails, fender delete and flush-mount turn signals. I need a steering damper!

I wear a black alpinestars tz-1 leather jacket, black alpinestars gloves with carbon fiber knuckles, and a scorpion exo-700 helmet.

I LOVE my Icon helmet! A bunch of people say how they are overpriced pos's but they are wrong. It's so much more comfortable than any other helmet I tried on. I went to a local store and went down a line of helmets and chose Icon. Very breatheable unlike alot of helmets and its soooo comfortable! I get compliments everywhere I go on it as well

As far as a cooler jacket, try looking up Joe Rocket Ballistic series. I have one (I live in FL) and it is great. When I'm driving it feels like I'm not wearing it because the air goes right through it so well, with all the necessary padding. Plenty pockets as well

I've got an Icon helmet and jacket. Astars gloves and oxtar boots. Planning on replacing my helmet with a scorpion exo1000 and the jacket with an astars or a new scorpion leather. I'm not really a huge fan of the helmet as for the price it really wasn't worth it. But i bought it about two years ago. Some of their newer stuff looks to be top notch though. Maybe the price tag is worth it.
