Since my CB-1 I had a 600 diversion (seca 2), 96 cbr 900 and a 98 cbr 900 which i sold after storing for a winter to buy my current steed:

It's the same power as the CBR, 20kg heavier, much prettier (imho) and two insurance groups lower, which is handy.
They do want a few things done from standard (rear brake master, front brake master(to taste), LED idiot lights, clutch lever, etc, etc) but they are gorgeous bikes and the sound is great even through the immensely heavy OE exhaust.
