I know this is a little out of season for most of us but it looks like Yamaha has been burning the midnight oil for us dry track folk. Check out the Sakura!

myself, I am more of a FZ1/ R1 guy, althogh I would take an M1 if they actually made it for the street
Yami needs to make a real sporting twin sportbike again. 1000cc's or more, and no the MT01 no matter what they do to it, does not count.
the R1 does fit me pretty well though.

I am more into the twisties and road race track day thing. The straightline stuff doesn't excite me too much. Dragging knee around a corner, and killing the edges of the front and rear tires is where the fun is for me.
I do have to say that is the first 04+ R1 I have seen without the underseat pipes.

You can do it all on an FZ1. Nice choice in bikes!
My TL1000s is a lot the same as far as all around ability. I put Heli Bars on mine to make the clip ons a lot more daily rider friendly.
A corbin seat also made a HUGE difference. Most sportbikes have horrible seats stock.
