Me never owning a bike before... how would I know an older zx6r is heavy and sucks? All im gonna think is that its faster and can turn sharper than any sports car ive ever driven. Plus I wont have any past bikes to judge it against like most ppl here.

I like the F4. But the zx6r beat it bad in 2000....
I definatly dont like the F4i which beat the zx in 2001...

But if we talk 2000 F4, what is the difference betwee that and the YZF600R I've had in my list? Both are carbed, both have banana seat, both have bars above the triple tree, both have single headlight. The thundercat is mostly cheaper too....
not really... anyone who's ever ridden the 636 knows it offers more grunt than the 599... but it's not enough to say that a noob who can start on the 599 wouldn't be ok on the 636.
