Have we met at Pannon Motorsports before?

Yes it is quite a list. It just goes to show that I really haven't made up my mind yet. The CBR250RR seems the closest option to the 250R. From seeing a few on the streets its capable of the same high-revving fun... but with about 15-20 ponies more it may do better on the highways. BUT the potential PITA factor is a huge turn-off.

I've sat on a few ZX7s and I like the level of comfort compared to modern sports bikes. Although its supposed to be 100 pounds heavier than the 205, I don't find it too bad but then again I haven't ridden it either... and finding a clean one is a bit of a pain.

I mainly do highway and inner city commuting (80kmph 50mph) but I love to carve up twisty roads whenever I get the chance. From what I've read so far, the ZX7 seems to be a great bike for that.
