Default Been riding for about 1 month now...

Hey everybody,

I bought my first bike (2007 ninja 500r) last month and while it has been enjoyable so far, the 2007 ZX-6R has caught my eye. I thought I wouldn't be able to handle a 600 as a first bike and now after riding the 500 for 500 miles I've realized its not enough bike for me. So I put it up for sale and have someone who is interested in giving me 4800 for it. I would lose about 800 bucks but thats not bad considering the trade-in value was 3 grand. I kinda wanted a ZZR600, but I dont know if I want to compromise again cause I might not be happy with that one either. Any suggestions?

Basically its between the '07 ZZR600 and the '07 ZX-6R.

Thanks for the warm welcome! I've decided on a '07 Passion Red ZX-6R. Its convenient that it already matches my gear(not that I care about that). The buyer will be coming June 6 to pick up the 500, and while the break-in service is being completed we will be doing the paperwork. I will have the ZX that same day. I'm so excited! My girlfriend isn't too excited about the hard seat though lol. Any alternatives?

congrats on the new bike(s) and welcome...thats nota bad deal to sell it for...just an FYI also...the 500 has enough power for almost anyone, you just havent unleased it yet...but the 600 is also a great bike with much different power..two words RESPECT it (or it will kick your a$$)!!

So where does the red stand then? Is it just slightly slower than the green or is another color faster than it too?
