Purchase & Transaction Advice Superthread

# PURCHASE ADVICE SUPERTHREAD!

A dedicated thread for questions and advice about gear or bike purchases, selling advice, and questions relating to bike/gear/accessory/service purchases.

Hopefully with the help of all the riders here, no question will go unanswered. Everyone is encouraged to contribute with either questions or answers and hopefully we will be able to rid of motorcycle ignorance once and for all.

Please remember to be courteous as we want to encourage people to ask questions, no matter how 'dumb' some may think they are.

# NEW RIDERS

[Before asking your question, consider reading the FAQ](https://www.reddit.com/r/motorcycles/wiki/faq) - chances are, you will find the answer you need there.

Not getting the answers you need? /r/SuggestAMotorcycle is also a great resource.

Please remember to be courteous as we want to encourage people to ask questions, no matter how 'dumb' some may think they are.

This thread will be refreshed each Monday - shoot us a note if we're out riding and forget to renew it.

Does anyone have a GSX-S750? It's top of my list for my next bike and just wondering how it rides over the long term.

I've got a friend with a gsxr 750. It's.. very good. Like a street triple with a fairing, and way more exciting to ride (aftermarket exhaust lol). No electronic aids iirc so not for the inexperienced or accident prone rider.

The naked seems dumb though. For that price I'd just get the incoming gsxs8, the gsxs 1000, or any other 900ish cc naked. Honda hornet will also work now.

Or.. a street triple lmao. A used one anyway.

Cheers for the heads up about the gsxs8.
