I've had a VZ800 for 3 years and once I get out of boot camp, I want to upgrade to a sportsbike. I am absolutely in love with both the styling and performance of the GSX-R 600 and 750, but the price is pretty steep compared to the Honda CBR600RR or some of the Kawasaki bikes. I'm not even looking at the Yamaha R6, because I've heard they've been plagued with problems.

So, all you Gixxer riders with downstairs mix-ups, help justify the cost.
