Nobody was asking for "softer" sport bikes, that's a myth. The reason supersports weren't selling is because the ones from the Big-4 either haven't been updated since 2006 (19 years now!) or have been discontinued altogether. The reason Yamaha replaced the R6 with the R9 was purely for cost cutting and maximizing profit. The R6 was full of exotic superbike parts; titanium valves, magnesium subframe, forged internals, etc, while the R9 is a budget commuter bike with some superficial fairings on it, and a whole lot of electronics and TFT for the tech obsessed kids out there. Look at the resale values on late model R6's, and tell me the demand for supersports ain't there. Kawi sells a BUNCH of 636's, and the only reason nobody buys 600rr's or gixxers is because they look the same as the used one you can buy for $4k off FB Marketplace.

I still own my 2008 Gsxr750 track bike. I never had to do anything but preventive maintenance, it has 10 000 track miles and 15000 street miles. Just got it dyno tuned last week and made 131 whp. This week doing back to back trackdays with 95F outside, never skips a beat.

Just turned 50 and got myself a Gixxer 750. What a great bike. Flash and tune and it's even greater.

That's wild to hear a gsxr be called uncomfortable. My first bike was a k5 750 and I could ride that thing for hours, granted I was 21. I went about 10 years without a sportbike, and now have a 23 zx10 and I often find myself thinking about how much more comfortable my gsxr was. Granted, I'm 40 now and not in the same shape I was back then, but still in pretty good shape. Maybe it's time for me to consider some grandpa risers.

Hilarious that the Gixxer was even in this comparison, let alone that it did as well as it did. I think that speaks for itself.

The Duc is $3500 More than the R9. That is substantial!!!

If the gxsr was still being sold in Europe and particularly the UK, EVERYONE would buy the gsxr
