    600 is lacking below 10000 revs and licence threatning above 8000 rpm...
    Not with the k8 600. They gave it some mid-range after losing sales to the CBR600 and 675's.

    K8/k9 GSXR600's start making reasonable power at 5000 rpm. (or at least are rideable at 5000 rpm)

    Step up...

    I went from a Honda Magna 250 (cruiser style) to a CBR600F and am loving it. Heaps more power but as stated above it's all in the wrist...take it easy and build up the confidence.

    I'm still getting used to keeping the revs up. I'm still changing wayyyyy too early. The lights turn green, take off and up to 50kms without changing gear...no probs!

    the k4 k5 put out more tourque than the k6 k7 did and like the same HP!

    You won't regret it.
    The 600 will be a great step up for you.
    I've had a K6 750 for two and a half years... I love it. And that's after having owned four GSX-R1000s

    My 750 is a beaut, stable and fast enough, But depends on how long you've been riding. Can be lethal in the wrong hands, so take it easy man! Definately go for the 750.

    Ride a few v-twins first. If you still want frantic revs and power in the rev range that riders hardly ever use, buy a sports four.
