With 8 yrs experience, I'd say go for the Ninja 650R or the ZX-6R.

I've been shopping for a Buell myself. Looking at getting a Lightning XB9SX.

And I disagree about the reliable part, especially when compared to a Honzukikawimaha.

^^They don't need any chain maintenance at all (belt drive) and they don't rev super high so less valve adjustments.
The early Buells weren't stellar when it came to reliability, but the company has come a long way since the early days. Buell is a stand alone company, HD does not make Buells.

To the OP: What do you plan on using the bike for? How long are you going to own it? What is your riding style? I might suggest riding all the bikes you are interested in that way you know what you are and aren't missing with each one. GL
