Between those 2 I would say a R6 as well, but I would go for a CBR6 myself
why the cbr then my mate has one leaves my old thing behind , how :-[
After riding the R6 of my mates and then getting on my other mates CBR it just felt easier on the body, the position was nicer for me, and I could handle it a little easier as it has the power but also allows for numptys like me that dont ride hard and fast to be a liitle wild and recover better (ie I over cooked the corner but made it out alive, I didnt get the same feeling from the R6).
get ya the cbr sounds like a good lil bike really hmmmm could be in the running to then
IMHO Could place safe with the pipe & slippers comfy CBR. But if its a bike you intend to keep for sometime you will definitely get more entertainment if thats what you want... from an R6.
I agree with Igbell CBR is a much safer option for early days.. I don't know what the Track driven R6 was like in its early days did hear it was pretty manic, guess its still very much like it is now 'Track orientated' but pretty hard ride on the road. Either like it or loave it, personally I love it cracking handling and [s]screams[/s] howls like a Banshee :D [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
At that budget you might be lucky and nab a zx6r B1 (may have to be an ebay job), but you may have to settle on the A (636) model or even the earlier J model if it is a minter.
I've ridden all of the above, plus a CBR and R6 I would plump for a B1....and I did a few years back.
However, your reasons for buying and owning a bike might be different to mine so if you can, try and grab a test ride first.
Quick look on Pistonheads reveals these:
CBR: http://www.pistonheads.com/SALES/935914.htm
ZX6r : http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/942895.htm (not a 636)
R6: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/945177.htm
Out of those lised, I'd go for the CBR
thanks for that, would defo go for the cbr i think, go safe till im more confident
