I'm going to be a bit biased here as i own a B4, It's a fantastic machine, Handles well, More speed than i'm ever gonna use BUT some of the parts are starting to become rare and expensive especially the plastics. Also B's have the tendancy to blow the head gasket so be a bit careful when you buy. I've never ridden a C1 but have been told they're quite a bit lighter than the B's, A bit easier in the twisties but i don't think there's a lot of diffrence in power output (that you would see on the road). The best thing to do is ride both and see what suits you best.

I purchased my B4 6 months ago, best toy that i have ever brought. More power than i will ever need but so reassuring that it is available at a twist of a wrist. Speaking of wrists i cannot feel my fingers after 45 mins but am having too much fun to let it bother me. :red

Thanks for the reply's! The reason im looking at 9r's is im planning a 4 week tour of france and maybe a bit of spain, so want something thats comfortable enough to do 2-3 hour stints, but when i find that perfect bit of moutain road will give me all the fun of my zxr750! and take my panniers tent ect along for the ride!
I thought about the zzr but i think the 6 is to small and the 11 is getting carried away! :lol: I want to stay on a kwak and want something that when the trips over i'll still want to keep! so im thinking the 9r!! From what i can gather the b4 is more of the sports tourer and the c1 is the lighter and more agile sports bike! I dont know anyone that has one or has riden one so want some info before make a decision!
So feel free to put you penny's worth in!

Cheers Andy :D
