RE: need advice.
The F4i will sit more upright (higher clip-ons) and should be the most comfortable.
The 954 is very fast and powerful, but you will want to invest in a steering dampner if it doesn't already have one. This is also probably the most uncomfortable of the three.
The 600RR will be a little lighter in power, but also lighter in weight. It will be the most fun in corners (IMO)
It really comes down to what you want, but I think all of these bikes are good choices. Hope I helped.

i like the 1000.actually my buddy just got a repsol too.i sat on it and it seemed a little wide and the seat felt like my 12th grade math book!my buddy says its awsome but as far as everyday rider its got alot of power youll never use and way too powerful to wheelie.now an f4i and a 600rr got the same motor right?only difference is the chassis?either way one of those should have gobs more power and way more street manners than my f2 right?

RE: need advice.
You can probably find an 02 954 in the 4500 dollar range right now... it was definitely more fun to ride than the 600RR and to me the F4i just feels soooo heavy compared to the two...not that I didn't like it but I just got really used to the light feel of the 954 so it was a little bit tough to get used to ...
Big difference in the 3 though so my advice is to hop on all 3 at the nearest dealership or make friends with anybody that has one
