I'm new here and wanted to seek some advice.

I have owned and rode several Kawasaki 550's over the last 20 years or so but sold my machines about 5 years ago during a period when I didn't have the time to get to the lake.

So, between now and summer I am looking to buy 2 brand new stand-up machines and wanted to get a feel for what is the more preferred machine as far as the brand new ones that Yamaha and Kawasaki are offering.

I don't race or engage in any kind of *serious* freestyling but at the same time I will probably look to upgrade performance as time goes on... and am particularly interested in reliability.

Any suggestions, feedback, advice, etc...? Thanks in advance.
