The GSXR 1000 is just under a grand more for the models above on average. Insurance costs are quite a bit more, but that could just be me.
That was the initial reason I was drawn to the 750, but this morning I spoke to my insurers again and it was much more reasonable, now I'm not sure.
Still waiting on a 750 test ride.

750. It was great. The main thing for me was it really improved my confidence in riding quickly. Even a ham-fisted buffoon like me had his riding flattered by the bike.
On one occasion I took it up the highlands and had good fun chasing the Ferraris and Porsches owned by more wealthy friends. Blokes live their lives and never get those sorts of days out!
I sold after about two years because I had three bikes at the time, and was mostly doing distance on questionable roads, so it just wasn't used.
In all honesty though, I'd probably recommend the GSXR-1000 instead, I mean, no one ever looked back and said "I wish I'd bought the smaller one" did they?
