Default WTB: 600 C.C. sport motorcycle (which 600 bike is the best?)

Can anyone help me? I know that this is a ls1 forum but I have seen many bikes on here for sale. I am looking to purchase a 600 sportbike but I am a first time rider. Which bike do you think is the over all best? For example honda CBR, suzuki GSX-R600, etc.? Mainly if anyone is selling a bike that is close to Missouri that would be great! I am looking for a 2002+ bike with sort of low miles. Right now color doesn't matter. Thanks

You have no riding experience and want to hop on a 600? maybe you should try a 250 or something first.

I've rode on dirt bikes for awhile and a 600 is relatively small for a crotch rocket.

My first bike was a 2003 CBR600RR, its a great bike but I wouldn't recomend it because you sit about 7 CM closer than most other bikes, which doesn't sound like a lot but, after about an hour of cruising, your back and your wrists will be telling you otherwise, Right now I think the best beginer bikes are junkers, You can pick up like a 99 CBR600 for under 2k, you'll just have to accept the fact that its probably going to be a Salvage title, which is common in motorcycles. Anyways good luck with the buy, if you havent riden any sort of bike at all (like dirtbikes or enduro's) then have somone teach you, or when you try an turn your gonna hit the curb. You turn the bars the oposite direction you want to go, in other words to turn right, you lean weight on your right arm(gently) so it turns the bars to the left, then the bike will start to lean and you will turn, just remember, lean right go right, lean left go left. Have fun!

600s still go 10s...get a Ninja EX250 and try not to kill yourself. If you're still here after 10k miles, get something bigger!

Trust me there is a lot of driver involved in going 10's, you can change you're shift poitns by 500 rpms and drop to 13's, if you keep the bike below about 8k rpms, you wont have any problems, my CBR redlined at 15k, and made peek power at about 12.5, but anything before 8-9k was just a dog.

Check out my webshots link, just took em. Small scuff on right fairing as you can see from friend carelessly moving it in the garage..... scraped the garage pole.

Anyways, the bike is flawless besides this lil imperfection, unmodified except for rear fender eliminator and sporttech chrome windscreen. Email me at xseanconradx@yahoo.com if interested. Oh yeah and besides the gear that I will include I also have a brand new rear tire that Ill include, another 250 bucks worth
