600rr or r6
 
Ive got an option for the other arf on either of these two bikes what would you do......oh and can anyone point me at either a club for the above or website please?

The 600RR is the better bike IMHO - really easy to ride fast and slowly. The R6 is a bit more nutty? - if that makes sense ?

R6 Andy - it's a cracker, just ask anyone at the CSS.

IMHO
R6 = Fun, fun, fun - bit like an LC with reliabilty
RR = OK, but still has a dash of the ol' Honda blandness

R6 OC

It depends on what year? 06 R6 I like a lot, but not too ure if its suitable for Mrs B. 600RR like most Honda's are duel purpose. If it credentials your looking for, just look at any supersport result.

Btw the CSS would say that, they are sponsored by Yamaha

...and for the cbr, try this

http://www.cbr-forum.org.uk/

What year are you talking about...used or brand new? Used, I'd go for the CBR. I have one for track which to be fair has had a few mods, but I love it - does exactly as it should, easy to ride slow or fast, but so good it could be bland, although I love the look and the under-seat exhaust. I've ridden a few R6's on track and on the road and they have to be worked very hard compared to the more docile Honda, although speed wise there's nothing in it. If you are talking new, the R6 wins by a mile, the 06 model is beautiful - I've not ridden it yet, but spoken to a few that have and it's a great handling little missile.

If new though, take a look at the gixer - the best one of the 600's imho
