Go and buy a 250 or a 500 for a starting bike.

Shit am I the first one to notice the two bikes that were choosen?!?!

Epi- There is a HUGE difference in the two bikes you posted. The Kawasaki is badass but its a 600 and dyno's about 100rwhp stock. The Suzuki is a 750 and dyno's at around 120rwhp stock, with alot more torque. The suzuki although its a 750 probably weights the same!! The kawasaki 600 would be the better bike to learn on, the 750 is just nutts. The 600 will still have a hard top end rush.

Maybe you meant, what is better a suzuki 600 or a kawasaki 600, they are too similar to really difine which is better. The kawi if anything will be easier to learn on. Both badass still

Well really that kawai in the picture is the race bike for the AMA. There is a difference between the 636-r and the 636-rr. the rr is the AMA legal race bike. It only comes in green. it has 599cc and the gearing is better. Go to kawasakis web site and you can get all the facts on the zx-6r and dfference between the two.

what about a f4i or a r6 those are gret bikes as well my first bike is a 2002 gsxr-750 i love it but im affraid to do anything on it go with a smaller bike my friend has a 1998 gsxr-600 red/black 15,000 miles for 3700.00 its in very nice condition.

if i were you i would go with a f4i(small and quick), r6 smallest bike easy to corner and learn on, gsxr-600 larger very nice bike quick yet nimble. i would stay away from the kawi riding sucks long distances and there colors are way to bright

I did mean the 600. I just happen to be looking at the 750s when I grabbed the pic.
