Ok I asked yesterday about a '99 Honda CBR900-RR, now I have a choice of that or a '00 Suzuki GSX-R750 and a '01 Yamaha YZF-R1.  They are all nice bikes and all have the same price tag. WHAT DO I ***   Any suggestions or opinions would be awesome!!

Thanks!!

the other 2 will make that CBR feel like a big, slow tank. the CBR has more character i think, but the R1 is a monster and the 750 is very strong.
i'd take the R1 in a heartbeat, but it's a lot of bike, mind you.

What's your riding experience/history....?

All of them are probably more than you want if it's your first bike....

Well it's not my first ride. I learned to ride dirt bikes growing up and learned to ride street on a Kawasaki ZX9.  I of course dont have the time on two wheels as many of yall but i've twisted the throttle a few times!

although...it depends on the condition 'cause a super clean '99 CBR900 should cost what a semi-trashed '01 R1 would be.
in that case I'd go with the RR 'cause clean ones are hard to find.

Ok the RR is super clean and nice!  Paint is custom with nice amount of chrome! But with everything nice there is a catch, the bike is in London!!  The seller of the bike course says he will cover shipping and insurance to get it here but i'm still a little leary being I cant see the bike in person.  My first choice is the CBR900RR but im scared to loose my money trying to get it and it be some kinda scam!!
