Currently riding a zx12r. Absolutely awesome bike. Makes my z4 feel slow. If you are considering a 600 perhaps give the zx6r a look. I've had 3 in the past. The newer zx6r's are quite focused. I'd recommend the older zx636. You should be able to pick up a nice one for under 3k. An excellent all round bike. The model no. Is zx636 a1. Year 02-03 I think. The zx6r j1's and j2's are nice as well....IMHO.

I've got an Aprilia Caponord, which I use for European jaunts. Been to the Pyrenees, northern Spain, a few trips to various parts of France, a few Ring trips and Slovenia/Austria. Am off to Millau and the Massif Central in July.
Much prefer bikes to cars, they give you something a car just can't get close to......sure you know what mean.
