I sucked a valve down into the cylinder head. NOT GOOD! What was worse was I was riding a wheelie at the time, almost bucked me right off the bike. If I were to get another it would be a GSXR for sure, I hear that they are hella reliable!

Can't rev a Ninja past 10K??? Hmmm... I'v done it many times, especially on a 600. You might have needed a valve adjustment pretty badly. If the valves were ay out of spec, then the the lifters comming down on the valves at high revs would hammer the shit outta the retainers & drop one right through the head.
Actually, Gixxers aren't really all that reliable... But they are the most potent sport bikes aside from Aprilla's .
If you want reliability, Honda is what you want, for straight Performance Zook is the only way to go.
