As much as i love the RVF, and i've got the tyga kit on the way etc, but Next year i want to buy a 600cc, or there abouts (636,650 etc you know what i mean).

Any which people you can fully recommend?

I do love the GSX-R600, but i would buy the K6 model next year as i'm told by the sales guys downstairs they are puttin the k5 1000cc seat on it, which i like. Not very tall you see, and that seat is just perfect.

Do love the 636 Kawka, and the Honda 600rr Drooling

Money isnt an issue, looking at buying brand new so Thumbs Up
A big also is, i want it to be able to carry pillion.

Soo people, sell me my next bike Very Happy Thumbs Up Plus work in the trade.

Andy

Well I ride a 03 CBR6RR and I cant fault it for a 600, can feel abit short of power in some situations but not very often.

With the 600's you have to keep then in the sweet spot to get the best from them with larger bikes the power is more spread so if you get it slightly wrong a bigger bike will gap you.

But being honest that only when really messing about, 99.9% of the time a decent 600's just rite.

Any of the supersports wont disapoint you they are all very similar on performance, as said before mate just ride the ones you like and decide what suits you.

My recomendation is of coarse the CBR6RR.

The K6 GSX-R 600 and 700 should as ever be identical looking, expect them to be the same dimensions as the K5 Thou and a little lighter. It should look similar to the K5 Thou in many respects with enough little differences and cost savings to be able to tell them apart. As per modern gixxer history.

None, I'm on my 5th 400cc bike now, ('78 CB400/4, '93 Bandit 400VVT, '89 NC30, '96 CBR400RR, '93 RVF RR) can't imagine parting with my bike for a mainstream 600...





...at a push, the new ZX636R.

Restricted licence bro Thumbs Up
I can ride them at work though so not a problem, just wont be on the open road only the small space we have. There is this lovely 600RR with a full Acky system, just sweet as Twisted Evil

As said if the new k6 600 is like the k5 thou, i'll buy it.
Oh craig, who said the RVF is going mwuaha Razz

Lo Andy.

I've also been told the K6 600 will look a lot like the K5 thou, the salesmen seem to know more about it than the mechanics, lol.

If i was buying brand new this year, i'd get a zx6r most people at my work seem to reccommend it as well as the magazines. But they change so much each year, i'd wait to see what people recommend around then. Thumbs Up
