I think you may miss your 695, just my $.02....

I'll agree with CJ...I love the 4valver but I really miss the 620.

Swanny's S4RS is the tits, but if it doesn't work out $-wise it probably wasn't meant to be.

Have fun shopping!

Would never get in the way of Swanny's bike sale but I agree with the above. If you love the 695 and it's still an unfinished project then keep it and buy a thrasher for the track. If you don't do AMS/Jeff Nash track days you can get whatever brand you want for that. AMS is kinda all Euro only. Andre will be getting his SV650 fixed back up soon and it would a killer, fun and reasonably priced track bike. Heck ask him, he tracked it several times.

No two ways about it, Swanny's S4RS is a freaking hot sled. But would you want to track the S4RS? I guess you can't go wrong either way. I would go the way of least money resistance... what's the easiest to buy, upkeep and insure? Yet more of my worthless two cents. :-\

I must politely disagree...

On the other hand, I leave tons of quality tire all over 35 and 183.  It would be nice to have a second bike with some road tires on it.  Other than that, my sport tourer does work as a commuter bike, touring bike, and hell, it even tracks well, whaddayaknow...

It's your money dude, your the only one that knows whether you should/ could buy it or not.

I love my S4RS but I wish I had kept my 900 also (glad it went to a good home though :P). There is just something about the air cooled 2 valvers  [moto]. My S4RS is actually kind of annoying to ride around town below 50 mph but after the HC ride I have a HUGE new appreciation for that bike.

Do what makes you happy just be smart about it  [thumbsup]
