Don't you wish you had a spare $5000 and lived near me: 1991 Kawasaki ZXR750 (http://www.bikepoint.com.au/DesktopDefault.aspx?UsedBikeID=1977624&TabID=3424&Alias=bikepointau)

Very nice example - I Believe that the Kwaka 750 was Troy Bayliss original race bike when he first started out :D

Probably. Scott Russell and The Go Show raced them as well.

I was just discussing the bike with my dad tonight and he said that if a beginner was to attempt to ride that, it would scare the living shit out of them and they'd never want to ride again :D

Seeing how I have never ridden a bike before, I'll have to pass it up :(

I have my eyes on a VFR400 anyway. Been looking at video's on Google: http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=-1700259741131066187&q=vfr400

I reckon a beginner would be alright with it so long as they're someone who's happy to go easy on the throttle 'til they have a decent chunk of experience.

Lovely bikes too.

LOL

I was looking at VFR400's for sale last night and they go for AUD$7,500 for a good condition example, compared to that Kwak's $5,000,

I'm so stuck!

Maybe a cheap dirtbike would do the trick...
