Default New guy! Looking for CBR600

Hello everyone. I just sold my 2002 Eclipse, and bought a 2002 Honda S2000. Hence my name. I have always had my eye on a Honda Crotch Rocket... so im considering a CBR600f4I... or RR... i dont know what i want... but i do know i want a yellow one.

This will be my first bike and ive been told that a 600 is a good starter. I will be in the market till mid August when i make my purchase. Till then, i'd like as much info about the 600f4i and 600RR i can find...

Hello & Welcome!!

As I recently said in another noob thread....Being comfortable is the most important thing. I started on a 250, then after a year moved up to an F4i. I'm 5'2.5" and weight about 130lbs. This is a big bike for me, but I've gotten used to it and handle it fine. I am no longer using larger boots to lift myself up and I'm comfortable. I rode my man's RR, but it just doesn't fit me. The positioning, etc. Just sit on a couple of bikes and determine it from there. Good Luck in your search!

lol pits typing the same thing I hope you use the copy and paste for that paragraph. The 600 is a perfect bike to buy. Its not only tame enough to be used as a first bike but has the power and can handle with the best of them. Honestly i dont care who you are but these bike dont have many limitations because the better you get the new things you learn. Its pretty hard to master the bike
