If you want a good ergo bike, get a 600rr in 2007 or higher. I keep dragging my toe in the canyons, but that is nothing some rearsets couldn't fix. The bike can be ridden all day w/o hurting anything. Its comfy.

But yes to your suggestion. If Kawi could make a new 7r that was light and had an ultra short stroke (torque), I'd buy one. The Gixxer 750s are still too high end RPM bikes IMO. The difference between the 750 and 600 isn't all that great. Its something the 675 and 848 has over the 600...torque.

Along the same lines...Kawi isn't going to come out with a 750 unless AMA starts to allow it to race.
i think you mean longer stroke there
