Contemplating purchase



Greetings,

I am contemplating the purchase of a new bike.  My last bike
a 1995 Ducati 916 was a beautiful machine.  I didn't ride it as
much as I would've liked cause it a bit uncomfortable though.

I am also an ex-racer (RS125, FZR400 and CBRF4) at the club level.
I suppose my biggest claim to fame is getting spanked by Colin Edwards :^).

I am really struggling with what my next ride (street) should be.  I am
considering the following (with a budget under 10kUSD):

1999 Daytona  (used)
2000 Spint RS (new)
1999 Sprint ST (new)
1999 Yamaha R1 (used)
2000 CBR929 (new)

I enjoy a nice smoky burnout from time to time, and regular doses
of power wheelies.  I do appreciate a comfortable ride as well.
Is a Triumph for me?  Why have others on the list purchased the marque?

TTFN,
Robert Smith
Carrboro, NC USA
