| | Are the 3 engine settings suppose to duplicate like your riding a GSXR- 600,750,and then 1000? |

| that's the basic idea, roughly. they also say its to help with wet riding. (more wet, less power to stay safe.) supposedly it works fairly well, but if you're experienced enough to use a 1000, you probably won't ever feel like using the other settings.

| | So for someone who is experienced and interested in getting a GSX-R750 it would probably be smart just to get the R1000 and you can have the best of all 3 bikes? |

| not necessarily. the overall best bike of the three is the 750. most reviews say it handles almost like a 600, and powers almost like a 1000, and is the best overall combination on the street for sure, and on the track too, unless you get into serious track riding/racing. The 1000 is an awesome bike, no doubt. I have an 03 1000, and love it. However, on the street, and even the couple times I've had it on a track, I don't come close to using its full potential. To do that on the street would be absolutely crazy dangerous, and I just don't get on the track often enough to really do it justice there either. I had an 02 750, and I had more fun riding that because it felt like I was a bigger part of the equation, than now. That bike got stolen, and I replaced it with the 1000, because at that time it was like the best sportbike there had ever been, but looking back, I'd probably have enjoyed another 750 at least as much. I ride fairly aggressively for the street, trying to keep within the realm of safety, and I still sometimes feel like the bike must be bored with me.
the new 1000 is going to handle and brake just a bit slower than the 750, and accelerate a bit faster, this acceleration is the part that is less likely to be useable on the street, and thus may make it so the extra cost of the 1000 isn't worth it. This certainly isn't to say that people shouldn't ride 1000's, but an old saying goes, "its more fun to ride a slow bike fast, than it is to ride a fast bike slow." (not that the 750 is slow by any stretch of the imagination)
