What's up board members?  I have caught motorcycle fever and am seriously looking into purchasing one.  I think I'm a little on the young side for a hog, so I've been looking at the Yamaha R6, any suggestions?

What is your size?  My buddies first bike was a Roadster and he has since moved to a Road King.  Initially, he loved the Roadster...

The R6 is a beautiful bike but the Honda 600RR is an overall better bike unless you plan to use the R6 to race...to me, the 600RR is much more comfortable....comfort being a relative term for crotch rockets.

Why the hell would u get a 600 dude?  Grow some hair on ur balls and go for a Gixer 1000.  Ride safely sweetheart!  Pullin wheelies at 80mph will agree with u more without the pussyfart 600.

Yeah, I know the R1 would be the macho bike, but I've never been on a motorcycle before, and that could spell trouble for an amateur.  I'm 22 by the way, that's why I said I feel I'm a little too young to be haulin' the Harley...

Definately go with the 1000. You will wish you had of after a month or two. My brother is selling his R1 for $5,900 I think.  It is silver and gun metal black, not a scratch. If you're interested , come on over to ILLINI  town.
