Default 2011 GSXR 600 OR 2008+ CBR600rr??

I'm stuck between getting a 2011 Suzuki GSXR600 or getting a 2008+ Honda CBR600rr. All the local dealers say the cbr600rr is more comfortable than the gsxr600, even with the 2011 redesign of the gsxr.

Pros/Cons of each?

Option #3.....ZX-14 man. If your gonna kill yourself at least do it in style on a 9 sec 1/4 mile bike.

The 2011-2012 GXSR 600 is a brand new model refreshed with a major redesign.
Honda should be doing a major redesign refreshing job on the 2013 CBR600RR as they
made significant changes on the 1000RR in 2012. Honda usually redesigns the middleweight class 600cc sport bikes a year after redoing their liter bikes.

My advice would be to wait until Oct to Nov to see what Honda does with the 600RR which
has not had a major overhaul since 2007.

Yeah I think will wait a year. That way I'm rock solid on my riding skills and that will give me time to really make up my mind on what I want to do. Shoot I may end up with a chopper or a rm450 dirtbike and just keep my lil cbr.

It will either be a Honda or a Suzuki, my two fav brands. IMO, Honda is the best as they are #1 when it comes to engine quality and production along with having the best ergos on their ss bikes. Suzuki is #2, IMO. I've always been fond of Suzuki's dirt bikes since I was a kid.
