Out of the:

F41, R6 and other 600 sport bikes out there which one is more comfortable? performance between all the 600's are more then enough to keep me happy so Im really concenred with the better street ride.

Anyone have any experiance with the new sport bikes? Im used to the early 90's and big iron (super big seats and really comfy)

 

everything i've read points to the F4 being the most comfortable for the street. I may be wrong though

 

The YZF600R (Yamaha) and "Can-o-tuna"/Katana (Kawasaki) are pretty comfy, too. And they aren't completely left behind by the newer 600s (at least, not until you reach 10k rpm).

There are products out there to make your bike more comfortable (Heli Bars, Corbin or Sargent seats, etc).

 

F4/F4i -> your bottom is gonna be sore. Their seat is equivalent to a concrete slab, but you kinda get use to it after a while.

R6 -> lower posture. Increases presssure on wrist and back. If you have lower back problems, might wanna stay away from the 6.

If you're asking for which is more comfortable overall, I would have to say the F4/F4i.

Cant really go wrong with either bike tho.

Suzuki makes the Katana!!

anyways, i personally think that my cbr600rr is real comfy to ride, the seat is a little harder, but i got used to that. i think its more comfy than my friends r6, but thats my opinion and also

 

yzf600 is comfy. heavy, but comfy. SV650 is also comfy but is more of a tourer..although it can be really fast in the turns. The earlier r6 is not too comfy. the 03 r6 is actually the most comfy out of the big 4 including the 600rr, zx6r, and the gsxr.

If you are lightweight, the posture won't affect you as much if you were heavy

I've probably left some out but those are the first to pop up in my mind. I wouldn't say the Honda f4/f4i is terribly comfortable b/c I don't have much of a belly and the seat is harder than my floor. With an aftermarket seat or modification to the stock seat its not bad. Not nearly as good as the 98-02 Kawasaki zx6r though. That's my #1 pick in ergo/comfort in a competitive middleweight. The gixxers pre 04 are good as well. The yzf 600r is like sitting on a lazyboy comfy but a bit on the porky/upright side for me. The 600RR isn't too bad but I personally don't think any of the 03 supersports are terribly "streetworthy". I think the R6 edges out the 636 my a smidge. Course the 636 powerplant is infinetely superior streetwise.

Whoops, thanks for correcting me. I was looking at the thread about the guy's new slip-on and his Kawi, which is why I was thinking and typing Kawasaki. So it's not my fault!!
