f4i 2 seater is also very hard....if you're not flexible and older, your back and wrists may start to hurt riding the RR

 

I'm not too worried about the seat being hard. That's easy enough to replace. I was more concerned about riding position. I'm thinking the clip ons are probably lower than i'd want and my feet would be too far up and back for everyday use.

I'm sure I'll be happy with the performance of either bike...i have a V-Star right now that's been a good bike, but I got kinda bored of it. Thanks.

The CBR600RR was not made for commuting or touring so it won't be as good for this type of riding as a bike made for this type of riding. Of course, you can take long rides on it but it won't be nearly as comfortable and the difference is huge. I have an FZ1 and a CBR600RR and the difference is like night and day. For commuting and touring the FZ1 kicks the CBR's *** but in the canyons the CBR kicks the FZ1's ***.

Buy the bike suited to the type of riding that you will be doing and you'll be much happier.
