Lots of journalist have said that the YZF750 was very underrated. Too bad it was a pale comparison to the R7.

New bikes dossen´t automaticlly make old bikes bad. Do you realy need 150+ hp on the road??. Not long ago I had a ride on a freinds Kawa ZX10-R,and of course it was amasing. But it was not as comfetable as my old fizzer,and it did not had the same drive from low revs as my old bus. I am sure it will be a lot faster ( a few secs? ) rond a track,but do we really need that?
Then there is the X-factor of owning an old bike that you have build from the ground up,and know every last bolt on. You can´t put a price on that. Every jerk (whit money) can work in to a dealership and buy whatever is the newest, fastest, most bling bling at this moment. That said,if I had the money I would prop buy a newer bike but I do think that the newest bikes are getting a bit to race focused.The YZF in the vid. looks very cool and very fast,that could be a next project bike. Needs a respray thou. Pink?? what was thay thinking in the design department???
