while i'm sure you love your bike, and I'm happy that you do--your advice sucks.

not everyone is you, and belongs on a liter bike to start out. granted, I have my doubts about your ability to really ride a motorcycle beyond 160 mph top speed runs, but maybe you're just better than 99.9% of the motorcycle riding world.

a 600 has more than enough power for us regular dudes.

A friendly suggestion new guy... keep you posts mature. we're actually trying to help people here.

I asked this same question on the Nesba forums once, which is obviously dedicated to nothing but track riding and most people said the 600rr over the R6. However, from what I've seen I typically see more R6's than RR's at the track.

What is also interesting is if you go to 1000rr.net most of those guys actually ride 600's on the track.

You can kill yourself as quickly with a 1000cc or a 600cc bike (or 50cc).

From the OP's experience (250cc 2-strokers are a bit peaky, aren't they?), with some road bike experience, so he knows some clutch/trottle/brake control and all the other good stuff... and very importantly when to put the foot down.

So, any sportbike is good. I'm with the folks that say all the modern sportbikes are close, in regards to performance (USD forks, fuel injected, tuneable, etc). So it comes down to fit and style.

Good luck, and keep the shiny side up!

whoa, u are so cool, it takes an expert rider to weave in and out of some traffic and slow down while cornering on a highway, you and your boys should make a compilation with some badass music and graduate to youtube

On the street at stop lights the seat sucks, but on the track it's nice. And considering these are track bikes I'd say they did a good job designing the seat lol.

Are you kidding? A 2-stroke 125 will get to 60 in less than 5 seconds. They have about 35 hp at the rear wheel in stock form, and only weigh about 200 pounds. A 2-stroke 250 only weighs a little more and puts down 47 hp at the rear wheels and is considerably faster.

Anyway, you are right. If somebody races a 2-stroke 250 off-road then they should have no problem with a 4-stroke sportbike.

Where is the best place to find a 2006 R6 in Anniversary Yellow?

theedeadmau5

check out some club forums such as wera and nesba and look at the r6 forums as well, and theres always craigslist

Is 6k for a 06 with Clean Title and 6500 miles okay? I've seen some lower but with more miles.

theedeadmau5

if its in street trim thats about right, but id still try to talk him down a little especially if theres some defects

Id suggest finding a CBR600 used from the classifieds. If you decide to goto a dealership enjoy the payments and warranty. Just find a bike youre comfortable on and go from there, and dont settle, find what you really like.
