Now quit joking like you're getting a 959 as a B bike and pick up another 1299s from D&D.
Haha.
I haven't made up my mind. I am strongly considering a 959, but not if finding parts for it is going to be a huge pain in the .....
A 959 is legal for the B/750 classes.
In just thinking about the 959, it might be the perfect bike. Nimble and light, while having a lot of torque and good HP, but a little easier to control/ride than the 1299 so you could feel like you can manhandle and ring the .... out of it, rather than holding on for deal life most of the time.
Ive always thought a Gixxer 750 is the best all-around bike on the planet. More power than a 600, but easier to ride than a 1000. Strong enough to accelerate hard, power wheelie, etc...but you still feel like you are in charge and can ride the .... out of it like a 600. Unfortunately Suzuki essentially hasn't done .... with their 750 since 2006, and I don't feel like waiting another 2-3 years for their new Liter bike technology to trickle down to the 750 (assuming it even will).
Part of me is also considering the MV F3 800, for all of those same reasons. But this 959 makes a little more sense because many of the spares I have accumulated for the 1299S (obviously except for the wheels) should carry over, and it wont be too much of a different bike to get used to because the ergos etc will all be the same.
