If I was you I would go and sit on all the 600's around and buy whichever is most comfortable for you. Most 600's nowadays are comparable in power and handling. I bought an 03 Suzuki GSXR Alstare because I love the way Suzuki's feel (throttle,handling,style). Some of my friends ride R6's and suposodly they are faster but when I sit on it it feels like im riding an anorexic bike. Different bikes are made differently like Kawi's supposodly are better for taller people because they are a little bigger. From what I heard Honda's are the most comfortable. I would just check them all out before you buy one.

Hondas are definitely comfortable, and I hate to say it but Suzuki is the least comfortable. Everything else falls somewhere in between, but keep in mind that how comfortable you are on a bike plays a big factor in how well you'll be able to throw that b1tch around in the twisties. My advise is to test ride and sit on a few if your friends got em...

^^^i agree i sat on a honda at the local dealership and then a Suzuki.
the Honda was more comfortable but the Suzuki gave you more of a race type seating position.
those GSXR's are made for performance in every aspect

hey Nookie don't forget to post pics of your bike when she's done.
i wanna see her returned to all her glory

She's nearly finished. Gonna paint the bitch gunmetal with some accents though. I think black is just too hard to see, especially with the black asphalt and it's even worse at night. Surprisingly, it isn't taking much...just some body work...
