Im at a crossroads in my life, i recently got a 2004 Honda 599/hornet and its a blast ive been up to 160 on the bike but i feel like i want something more powerful. I want a bike i can somewhat compete with on the track (as a hobby) aswell as keep up with my buddy's FZ1 and ride it on the street. the 599 is a de tuned cbr 600 engine. Ive always wanted a 07-08 CBR600rr but got the 599 b/c of the practicability of sitting more upright. So my question is is 600rr powerful enough to fullfill my need or do i need to go on to a 1000, i hear that the 600rr is lighter and the 1000rr isnt that much more powerful so the 600 is the way to go?

 

The 600rr is more than "powerful enough". Its an excellent street or track bike.

 

Turbo Hayabusa sounds like it will fit you perfectly.

 

Ghost Rider has his bike in a raffle.
