I used to have an '03 600RR... soon as I get a new place, and some more money (like next March or so) I'm getting an '09-'11 600RR, just depends on what I can get a good deal on.
I did a search recently and 03 RRs are still going for a few thousand.
Seriously riding a bike fast is the most fun you can have with your cloths on. Though maybe not as much fun as you can have wearing leather...
