Hi all. My first post :)

I am looking to buy a new bike in the 600cc range. But can't decide on which. I have always been a Yamaha fan, but I found myself looking at other makes this time around. So maybe without being too bias towards the Yamaha, you can give me some straight facts on which is a better overall bike.

1. Yamaha R6
2. Suzuki GSX-R600
3. Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R
4. Honda CBR600RR

thanks

The only one that I would consider beyond a Yamaha is the Suzuki, but that's just me. I hear the new slipper clutches on the Kawi's are pretty sweat.

I would suggest picking up a sport rider magazine, or hitting their website www.sportrider.com and reading up on their comparisons.

Check out www.motorcyclenews.com and look under bike reviews.

If you are not aware - MCN is the UK's no. one selling bike magazine / paper released every wednesday. They use readers, ex-racers and their own perople to test nearly everybike ever made and give informative an educated advice on every element. They test both on the track and on the road and run dyno's on every bike so you can know exactly what you getting.

I should get comission for that!!
