late to the party... but the best of the new 600 for me has been the GSXR.

I have an 600RR... and just got home from 1100 miles in 26hrs... so it can be done... but damn my knees and wrist are sore from the position... ass too from 1100 miles! :lol:

I'm 6'6", about 220 or so. All the 600s suck, with the R6 taking the prize for worst torture rack.

If you need a real sportbike, the ZX10R and GSXR1000 both offer pretty decent legroom. The older ZX9R is great, if you can find a clean one.

If you can stomach a sport-tourer, check out the VFR or a ZZR1100 or 1200. If you can live with a naked, the ZRX1200 is awesome.

or you can get an 05-08 ZZR600... it's the old ZX6R from 02... the little bro of the ZX9... still plenty of room and all day comfort... rode that 4200 miles of a 5000 mile trip... before I looped it :lol:

funny though now they're considered a sport tourer...

My 01' gix 1000 is probably the most comfy sportbike I've had. It just feels a little longer and stretched out. Both of my TLS's were ok too. All my ZX-7's were torture and my 929 wasn't much better. I'm 6'2 about 210. Any bike i've ridden after 06' seemed like toys size wise. Very cramped.

If it helps, I've been riding the shit outta my sport-tourer lately. It's an awesome bike. The centerstand drags a little too early, but it is what it is.

I've just run into a lot of folks who won't touch a sport-tourer with a ten-foot pole, even if it would fit their riding style much better than a supersport or superbike would. I guess it has something to do with small penis syndrome.
