Are those alluminum framed and are the newer models FI? I've been thinking about a good used YZF600 as my wife's 2nd bike, she loves her Ninja 250, but enjoys the power of my F4 when she takes it for little spins.

I looked long and hard at the YZF 600 beafore buying my F4i. It had a comfortable riding possition for rider and passenger, looked cool, and had enough get up and go for an entry level and intermediate rider, and was about $7,000 brand new. After I sat on the CBR, though, it was all over...stick a fork in me! Nice bike, though, have fun and be safe.

thanks all!!! now i am not going to contest that fact that the CBR's are a better... but i will say that THIS bike is awesome, and a blast to ride!!!! The 40mile ride home was so exhilerating(sp?) and went by in a flash!!

Oh, and it is alluminum FLIP! not FI.

I cannot wait to go out riding again!
