very nice bike. would love to have one of those too myself.

 

Pros: Handling, brakes, center up exhaust, race ergos

Cons: Seat is hard on the *** after 50 miles or so.

Overall, I love my 600RR. I just took it out to the track the other day and had nothing but a good time on that bike. I recommend anyone that has one to take it out to the track. That's where the bike shines.

*Since you're a "newbie," I recommend getting some road time under your belt before going to the track.

 

I love mine.

Couldn't this problem be solved by just getting a new seat?

 

True, you can get a Corbin seat, which I heard is waaaaay more comfortable.

I don't use my 600RR to commute much, so I opt for the hard seat because I can move better when I'm at the track/canyons.

 

What con would there possibly be... are you planning on going touring with the bike?

 

only con i saw when i went to purchase a bike was that it was almost the same price as the Gixxer 1000.........there's something to think about, hmmmmm.......i'd rather get the 1000, but hey thats jus me.

Wow! A new Gixxer 1000? Careful where you go. I got my RR for around $7,600.

The seat does suck.

how'd you muster that deal??? MSRP is at $8,599. after tax/licensing/etc. the total bill OTD was damn near $10,200. that was the determining factor on me settling with a suzuki

Well, bigger ain't always better

 

Go to a different dealer. On 1000rr.net the average price OTD is 10,700.
