Love those 919s.  They make me want a shot at that CB1000R.

Guess I'll need to stick with the Speed Triple in the meantime though.

I'd hate to see a poor CB being ignored cuz the owner got another sweetheart.  Why don't you ship her to me?  I promise I would love her dearly!    :-X

After fighting with my 550 for months, I caved and went with a 98 VFR800 in addition. Fastest vehicle I've ever owned.

Mmm, used to have a 2000 VFR800.  It was a really beautifully balanced bike, but a bit small for my 6'5" frame.  Sounded utterly fantastic, though.  Gotta love that V4 howl.

Interesting.  I actually went the exact opposite.  I sold my '04 919 to get in to a '77 CB750.  The 919 was too fast for my own good.  I wanna ride mellow all the time these days...  But then again, I also thought I'd give up riding for a while once I sold my 919.  That lasted about a month.  ;)
