Just stick a pistol in your eyesocket, it'll all be over quicker. 
LOL just kidding. Get an R6, they are cheaper and plenty fast enough to get you killed.

You don't need an R1. I had a decently modded F4i, and the only time I hit full throttle was on the track and getting on the highway in the middle of some cornfields a few times.
If an R6 is "too slow" for you, you aren't riding it right.
Just my $.02 though

I know a R6 can go low 11's high 10's stock, but if you know you're going to constantly have someone on the back of it with you all the time, you probably want an R1 just so its a little bigger

Its just nice to have a little more room.I wasnt insinuating anything, when I had my bike I had every girl and their mother ask me for a ride. There are just some women you dont want asking.

I bought a brand new cbr 600rr for my first bike. It was fun for a couple weeks. Then I traded it for a cbr 929rr. That was alot nicer. The R1 I have has enough power for anybody. I can be doing 75mph in 3rd gear and bring the front right up, so you wont get board with power. Also for riding around town its very smooth and tame. It only gets crazy when right hand gets board.
