Default Whats the best 600cc Sportbike out there?

Suzuki GSXR, HONDA CBR4fi, or Yamaha YZFR6?

Default Depends.

Yamaha R6 is a light bike and handles ok but needs a steering damper.
Suzuki gsxr 600 also needs the steering damper.
Honda cbr 600 does'nt need one.
But that does'nt make it the best of the 600 class either, it shows it handles well but the top end speed gets fought out between the gsxr and R6.
The best all rounder is the cbr for handling and comfort and if its raw speed you want than take either the gsxr or R6 they are evenly matched. Just add a steering damper to either one of them.

All depends on whats more comfortable... I feel better on the honda's and r6's then I do on the gsxr600. Test drive them and see what you like best.

Borg I beg to differ from you. I thought that from the 2004+ came with the stableize? Dont know how to explain it but i had an 04 and it had a nice little contraption "steering damper" from the front forks attached to the frame! Im pretty sure it was a damper!

For me, it's Yamaha. Valentino de Rossi is already with Yamaha, right?
