I have grown aggravated with driving my Gen 5 zx10r on the street lately (I guess that is what track day will do) so i bought a 2016 GSX-S 1000ABS (naked) for $9300 OTD. Phenomal bike for the money. The ergonomics are very comfortable for long rides. The bike makes 12 less hp stock than a 2016 GSXR-1000 but about 2 nm torque more. I have been really impressed with the bike, and I am able to hang with my track buddies on super bikes on the street (not so much on the track). The bike is geared perfectly and makes power everywhere, and still has the top end rush of the inline 4. The bike also has the same Brembo calipers as the gsxr and hyabussa. Traction control works great as well, not as nice as the zx10r, but really good for the money. Only thing i am replacing is: stainless braided brake lines, versah pads, tires (I put rs10's), tank grip, etc. The bike really is a great bank for your buck. And the Metallic blue is stunning.
Super duke, s1000r, tuono, fz10 are all +$5,000 or more. This gsx-s1000 makes 140 whp stock and 75 tq. And it freaking shows.
