You opinions on a track bike...

Not a Yammy I'm afraid. A couple of friends are talking about getting a track bike and they're between a Honda VTR Firestorm, (that's the 110 ponies one not the SP1) or a TL1000R.

The VTR is a minor crash damaged example, nothing serious, and the TL R is already decked out for track use so has prolly been thrashed a bit.

Both cost €2000

I'm looking at going in with them so I'd appreciate you opinons, a lot.

I'd go the TLR and a couple of rolls of gaffa tape.

Would you believe they've changed their minds and have decided that instead of going for a €2000 bike between them they're going for a FZR600 each (you can pick them up around here for €1000 - €1500) so they can race each other!

Were there any important chassis/engine changes over the years, or were they like the 1k... basicly cosmetic changes?

i am 95% sure they were all the same with the only major cosmetic change being the single year swap to the single headlight (i think 92 or 93).
