Re: Honda CBR: CBR600F for First Bike ???

Yeah thats a nice bike. Nothing wrong with a 600 as a first bike. I have an R6 and its my first and couldnt imagine myself on anything else. The only bikes I would advise against for a first bike are liter bikes. Such as R1, Gixxer 1 Grand bikes like those. The reason being is THROTTLE CONTROL. Very twitchy in any gear whereas the 600s are usually only really twitchy in first gear. So just take it easy and learn throttle control before you even think about riding on the main streets and freeways. But yeah thats a nice bike and the CBRs can be had for pretty cheap especially the 01s. Get that if you can but definately check it out first, ebay motors has screwed a few people I know so be cautious.
