Re: Help SportBikes

I was just meaning that you get distracted pretty easily. If a hottie went walking by, I will bet $100 you wouldn't be looking at the road! An R6 is a very twitchy bike, you definately don't want that for a 1st road bike. If you must get a current 600, get the 600/636 Kawasaki ninja, or the GSXR600. Both are pretty stable bikes and have enough power to get you into trouble. Both will pull power wheelies in 1st just accelerating hard.

I am not saying you will crash a current 600, but your chances start going up a lot. Things happen in a hurry on a bike, right Erik? You need a bike that is forgiving in case you get into trouble, otherwise you are going down. But what the hell do I know, I have only been riding rockets for 11 years and raced for 3 years.
