    Choose my next motorcycle

    The GSX-R600 I've been riding the past few years has had a ton of issues with the electrical system and master cylinder that have been leaving my bike in the shop more often than not this season so I've decided I'm going to cut ties and finally buy a new one. I've been looking around lately and the ones I'm mostly considering are:

    Triumph Daytona 675
    Ducati 899 Panigale
    Yamaha YZF-R6

    Definitely leaning toward the R6 because its a lot more well-rounded for city/highway driving (the Panigale literally lights your balls on fire when idling) and easier to find parts/servicing for, but I thought I'd ask some of you idiots what you thought.

    I imagine @Dave84311 is probably the only one halfway qualified person to reply to this thread tbh but fuck it.

    also hi mpgh
    its been a while and i missed you

    My choice is the Yamaha R6. 140bhp, prettier than the others, doesn't have oil leaks easily, unlike daytonas, and parts are relatively cheaper.
    Plus the engine sound easily catches the ear of the pedestrians, or anyone who is close.

    GO FOR IT!

    Ducati for me. Mostly because of the name and the looks but ye. Otherwise second choice would be the Yamaha.

    If I were to pick with my dick I'd pick the Panigale with a good dry clutch.



    But if this is your daily bike, I'd pick the R6. I'm not much of a Yamaha guy but the R6 is as you said, a good quick all round bike.
    THE ABSOLUTE GREATEST

    I imagine Dave would say the Ducati, but the color scheme on the Yamaha looks sick.

    lol @adrique Why did you say the Ducati and then post a picture of a Yamaha?
    . @Mokou-Sama Stock sound doesn't matter to me because I always get the full exhaust rework on all of my bikes anyways.
    . @Doc Love the tunnel sounds, man. I just really don't like how the Panigale shoots flames right at your taint when idling. For city riding it would be an actual nightmare.
    . @arunforce Yeeeaaaaahhhhhh. Those colors are why I love the R6 series, most explicitly the Raven. They always go for the refined darks with sleek edges and it looks good as fuck.
