new here
hey guys im new here i currently have a 1994 VFR750 but im planning on getting a CBR but i was just wondering which one i should go with. should i get the 600 or the 1000? I've been riding my VFR for 3 years now and I've ridden 600's but never the 1000 i just dont know which would be better for me every time I get on a 600 it feels kinda weak though compared to my 750 but thats just on the low end. i would just kinda like some suggestions thanks guys.

Welcome
Major Edit : I originally answered to the wrong thread 
Welcome to the CBRF mate ...
If you think the 600 is a bit under powered , well then , hey , its the 1000 for you then ..
I had a VF1000 for years , so I sortta know the power that the 750's put out ...
I cant quite understand why you would think the 600CBR was a bit under powered ?.... may be the 600 you tried was a bit down for some reason ?? ...got me buggered .. unles all you mean is the very low down power range on the 600's ?
The VF configuration has loads of very down low power , that's for sure .... but the CBR 600's go like chit out of a shanghai when wound up ...
If you have a few years under your riding belt ,I spose for you , the 1000 would be fine ...
anyways ... have fun and stay safe on which ever one you choose to buy ...
BTW : Need any help around here just PM me :-)

Welcome aboard! Hmm... you say you feel the 600 is weak but mostly on the low end? What about the rest of the range? Maybe a sprocket change might 'cure' that?

Yup , you are prolly right .... the 600's do handle dam well and still have the poke to get you around at ballistic speeds ...that's for sure ....
I am yet to hear any of the 600 guys here say anything negative about them at all ...and we have ALOT!!! of 600 members ... LOL
again ....good luck either way man ....

Welcome to the CBRF, man.
Good luck on your search for the right CBR. I don't think you can really go wrong, but it's totally up to you what you like or want in a bike.
Good to have you here, and ride safe whatever you get!!
