You're referring to 600cc lawnmowers, right?

WiK has pretty much covered everything in his first post.
You say you are thinking about track days and fun rather than having it as a commuting bike. The 2-stroke wins hands down. That 4-stroke on a track will be a yawn. It really will just not have enough grunt to be fun.
Both bikes look absolutely beautiful.
i agree with you ... so then its the 2 stroke i will be getting :)
WiK - I'm seeing a lot of Honda VTR 1000 in the front-end of the RS4-125, don't you think?
its supposed to be a very similar copy of the rsv4.

He has a rs 250 and a recent 650 Suzuki and the rs 125 corners a lot better than the 650.

Hmmm. Not for me really. Headlights on the VTR are much taller. Sure, it has a similar style with dual lamps seperated by ram-air, but the VTR is much more smooth where-as the RS4 is very angled.
