Owners opinions 929 Fireblade vs Daytona 955i vs Zx9r
Discussion
Hi,
Currently ride a FZS Fazer 600 and looking for a step up that is priced in the £1500-2000 range. So far have seen Zx9rs, 929 Blade and Daytona 955i but was wondering if anyone could offer any experience of them or better yet a comparison?
Bit of information about me and my planned use, im about 6ft and 12-13st. The bike is my main mode of transportation (looking at a sport bike though, so not really interested in alternate naked or touring options currently) I ride 1000 miles a month of around town B road and occasionally motorway riding.
Preferably after fuel injection, but realistically something that isn’t a ticking time bomb but is also fairly user friendly and nothing too tank like.
Cheers in advance.
Rob

Bloody hell! Cheers for all the in depth quick replies
Unfortunately £2k will be the top of my current budget with time of year etc (also a bit apprehensive spending £ks on a bike through my first winter season haha)
I'd read on the blade having snatchy fuelling in first but that a power commander can resolve this. Very useful info on the recalls so thanks to all that have helped so far.
I think I'd enjoy them all coming from the Fazer, the apparent lightness of the blade appeals though.
