Hey there,
What purpose does your CBR 600 serve you? I'm interested to know what the group dynamic is here.
I threw in a few questions below in case people want to get specific.

- Is it your only mode of transportation?
- Is it comfortable enough for a tall person to do sport touring?
- For stunting, how frequently do you go through parts or entire bikes?
- Do you recommend riding the same bike for racing and commuting?

Thanks in advance for the input!

mine is simply a trackday weapon, and back twisties assualting. I am married with kids, so I definatly wont do for transportation. Im short, and its not as comfortable as my old F4i.

 

for some reason, polls don't wanna work on the computer I'm using, so here it goes; commuting and "maybe" sport touring. My other ride is a 2000 Honda Prelude (gotta keep it in the fam ).

 

My 600RR is now a race bike only. I put over 10,000 miles on her between
October 2007 & October 2008. I knew I would take her off the street once
I did my first track day back in May 2008. I love taking her to the track & not
having to worry about putting her bike in street mode. Don't get me wrong, I
would love to get another 07 or 08 for the street, buy my wife would probably
leave me. I do miss the days where I would put 400 or 500 miles on her in a
single trip.

 

I'll take
8. money pit.

Ummmm yep...sad but true

 

My 600 is a Race Bike only; I bought specifically for the track. It is also a huge money pit, but I love her. (My 954 is the street ride).

 

my RR is all of the above including money pit and frustration (see my thread on starting problems)

I haven't tracked it yet, but want to, most of all its a stress release and an way to have fun. I have a car so its not really a commuter but i do ride it to work and school sometimes, i prefer not to ride in traffic, its annoying, i have put 10,000 miles on her and most of those are from country rides.

 

For 2 years straight, my 600RR was my ONLY form of transportation........so commuter/sport tourer/trackday racer, etc. was what it was. But now that I have a car for the commute, the 600RR is now strictly a toy. I take it out on the weekends, and I'm waiting for some extra cash flow to make her strictly into a trackbike/weekend racer.

 

I have a truck that I use during the winter. But during the summers, unless its raining, it is my main source or transportation. I'll spend 16 hrs a day on it during the summer. I don't know how I got by the last 4 years without her.
