Default need help NEWbie here

ok here is the dilemma i am having i had a zx-6r til it was stolen( a blessin in disguise) and was looking at a 600 rr, but came across a deal for 6900 a 02 954 rr for 6900 wit 6600 miles. has a few bolt on things like screen and hindle exhaust and flushies. IS this a goo price? also how much difference is it gogin to be compared to a 600 rr or even a newer 1000rr. I am concerned bout comfortibilty the 1000rr feels good sat on a few, but who knows.. Any more info for this newbie would be greatly appreciated oh yea it is also the faster titanium and black color

the 954 is regarded as the most comfortable liter bike.. I've rode a few, and I've rode a couple of 636's.. The 954 is way less agressive than a ZX6RR that my ex had.. I couldnt stay on the ZX6 for more than 20 miles and my wrists felt like they were broke.. 954, all day..

the only complaint about the 954, or newer honda's in general is there hard a$$ seats. the 954 has a real comfortable ride position but the seat is like a piece of wood covered in vinyl. the zuks have a postrapedic seat compared to the rr's

Baiscally I can ride all day long on my 929, same body posture as the 954, I love it when the guys I ride with bitch about thier wrists, cause I know I made the right choice in getting the bike I did. PS I am a tall guy (6'4) and am still comfortable on the 929 than I have ever been on any bike.

For me I find the 954 the best bike I have ever ridden. Its like a 600 with liter bike power. Super light, very agile and it has the power when you need it. PERSONALLY....I would go for the 954 over any 600 that's out there on the market right now, even over the new ones. The price seems pretty good for the miles on it. Plus you don't have to worry about adding upgrades seeing it already comes with. Sure there might be better bikes out there on the market so its really a choice only you can make.
But If you can afford a new bike I would probably buy new. 1000 CBR Repsol or the new R1 (sorry Honda fans)[:-]
Myself, I love my 954, its very rare and not to many people have them, so they kinda stand out a little more.
What color is the bike? Just wondering.
