liter bike vs 600 - Page 2

zz...what the hell is a 600ss?..... and you make the same point in almost every thread you post in, making it seem like you are the only twisty rider out there. I to have many years of sport bike riding experience including several years of race experience, so when i say i am sick and tired of 600 riders making light of the 1krr, and saying they can beat it in the twisties, i am basing that on real world riding experience, and you are one of the people I am directly talking to. Your comments like let me guess, you can go fast in a straight line too are just the BS I am referring to....riding a 600 has really given you a napoleon complex, and its been my experience when people talk that kind of trash, their riding skills don't match, you know that cyber tough guy thing. Maybe you are the expection, the Terrell Owens of the sportbike world, if thats the case, than great, but there is always someone better, and a little humility wouldn't kill you. I realize that everyone is proud of the bike they own, and we all talk it up, but there isn't a day that goes by in this forum that someone like yourself says something about how their bike and skill is superior to the others online. I don't know about you, but for me riding is my one passion that is just for me, and it has been for more the twenty years. I welcome all riders, with the exception of squids, to come out and I'd love to ride with you. All of us were newbies at one time or another, and all of us can still improve. This thread was liter bike vs 600; not i've outgrown my 600. And honestly if someone feels that way and has the coin to buy a liter bike, why do you care. Lighten up, and quit telling people that they can only ride straightlines fast, twisties, fast or slow are what are sport is all about, and each of us has our line, knowing our limits is what keeps us up on two wheels.

and by the way zz....this all started when i posted a reply to pitbulls comments about how he beats 1krr's with his f4i....go back and re-read them....you will see his comment, and my reply, you just posted in the middle

Are you serious? ss = supersport.

I'm not even going to waste my time with this nonsense anymore.. You really have no reading comprehension, with an apparant inability to construct any cohesion from disjoint sources.

wow...i thank you for your enlightenment....and who makes the 600ss? please don't reply...i really doesn't matter anymore; we have managed to turn this thread into something it shouldn't have been, and for that i apologize to all

holy fack ...it boils down to rider ablilty, and the facts are to many noobie riders jump the gun

I go back to my original statement " you all suck buy an RC51". LMFAO this is some good reading!!!!

I think I'm gonna kill this thread before my son, on his Suzuki 80 dirtbike, cleans my clock in the twisties

Jolly good show!!!

But into reply to the first post if you honestly feel you have outgrown your bike than what does any of our opinions matter? I'll say if you want the 1k then buy it and enjoy!

I went from a gixxer 750 to a 1krr. I know I didn't "out grow" the bike at all. I still had way more to go. I always wanted a liter bike and I got an unbeatable offer so I sold my gixxer and got the 1krr. It wasn't my first choice, but now that I have it I'm really glad I got the Honda. I feel more comfortable on this 1krr than I ever did on my gixxer. The entire bike feels more stable and eager to roll into the curves. The way it handles gives me a little more confidence, and the low end power helps too. I like not having to crank up the RPM if I don't want to. Anyhow, that's just my opinion and situation.

Ok, I will say that I will never have the need to ride a liter bike because with the power that the newer 600's have, it would just be a waste of money for me. The '05 600RR that I have is perfect for me and I will never fully utilize it's full potential on the public roads anyways. I can go 160mph if I want to but there is really no need to do this at all. All of you who appear to be touchy when people disagree with you need to get away from the forums for awhile and practice avoiding the soccer-mom's with the cell phone.

i'm 30 and have been riding since i was 8yrs old...dad had a little 50 for me, that thing ruled. i just now got into a 900 and it really scares the shart out of me at times....i had to learn to ride all over again...i will never be able to use this bike to its fullest and neither will any of us on this forum(btw that is not a slam, i'm sure everyone rides well)... if we could, we would be touring around the world with a bunch of guys with funny accents racing every two weeks(go edwards)...that would freakin' kick a$$...

what are you guys talking about? A 600 faster than a 1000 off the line? Thats bs! People think that because a 600 is easier to manage off the line for most people but if you put a skilled rider on both machines at a drag strip back to back you will see the 1000's sixty foot time is faster, period.

ok gentleman,
lets all calm down a little . ive been on this post for about 6 months now and the only bashing ive seen is from other riders on other manufactured bikes coming on the thread bashing us.this post is for 1000rr riders dont let the other guys get to our emotions we all love to ride and i have rode scooters sport bikes big bikes and when all is said and done their all good to ride they are all fun. the very thought that a 600 can out run a 1000rr is intimidating if you are drag racing or doing twisties it realy does come down to the experenced rider i no because where i live we have a lot of mountain roads and the guys that have been riding those roads for a long time can take me with ease. sure i havent been riding my 1000rr for about 6 months now but i had only riden the 600rr for 3 years. they are completely differant bikes but you no what most of those guys have went down this year because they push the limits i dont i just enjoy riding and keeping it on two wheels. from spring until now their have been about 30 bikes go down and you no what from what i read on this forum only 2 bikes i have read about have went down that tells me that we are all good riders but carful at the same time i like mine pretty and shiny and i believe you guys do to.

I'm fresh to this site but I've got to say; this is very entertaining!

Just bought an 06 1000RR after coming off a race-modified 91 F2SS. What a friggin difference! - although I will say I miss the sound of that Two Brothers full racing exhaust coupled with the sound of a throaty carbuerated engine.

There is nothing like hammering the throttle on a 1000RR - out of a corner, at a green light, or when I'm already doing 100 and want to get to 140. The whole 600 1000 thing; it's totally rider preference. For me, I love having the torque to not have to ride at 10k+ to have ridiculous acceleration. For you other 1000 riders out there - you know what I'm talking about. To me - this thread is about the benefits of each bike - not which one's "better". The 1000RR is a wheelie monster, is great for those of us who are acceleration fanatics, and for taller riders, it's more comfortable too.

I just feel sorry for all those poor saps out there cruising around on 4 wheels all the time...

All this bickerin back and forth bout which bike is better is entertaining and all but polish what have u decided to get or were u just throwin in this lil armument just to get a kick outa people goin back and forth bout how good their skills r and how good their bikes r?

ok i had a 03 f4i then i t got stolen....I loved that bike it was so much fun and handeled so nice...i then got a 929 nice bike big differenc in handleing...but now i have a 06 1000rr....The new 1krr handles just as good if not better than my f4i did! So about the liter bikes not handleing i have had both and the new liter bikes are pretty damn close.
