Get off the girls leg so she can ride HD, LOL
EDIT: BTW, If you had more time on the 500 I would say definately take the 6, but you might have a little more learning to do. The 500 is more comfortable, better gas milage, better in the twisties, easier to handle, and cheaper to repair if you drop it. But if you feel ready for it, the 600 is sexier, faster, and manageable if you can control your wrist. I would suggest going to see both, I garantee you will fall in love with one, and if you dont, just walk away. There's plenty of fish in the sea in atlanta, and one of them will steal your heart.

RE: So I am back with a question
So I found a sweet deal on a 1999 Katana 600, nope its not the zx6 that I wanted, but it was a heck of a deal that I could not pass up. I will post pictures later tonight, like I said its a 1999 with only 610 miles on it! Yep you read it right, and I only paid $2350 for it! So now I really "got work 2 do"

Thanks for the input guys. Work is about 15 miles away, each way. Atlanta traffic of course, but its manageable. I will not be carrying anything with me but lunch and probably a change of clothes for the gym. I like the look of the 600 too, but that wouldnt be the main reason I would go after it. (I mean what hot girl like myself wouldnt want a hot bike, but I digress).
I think most people in Atlanta are smokin something because all of the 600's I have seen in that year rang and a little older have been in that price range, in which some of them are asking more then kbb and non-negotiable, but I am trying.
Thanks again!

RE: So I am back with a question
Personally? I'd look for a gently used zx-7, but I like a little bit heavier bike if I'm on the freeway with any regularity. I also prefer a bit more torque over the screaming of a 600 or less. If you're going to use it as a commuter, you don't really want some high-strung bike to wear you out before you even get to work! (Sooooooo, get a commuter, AND a screamer for the weekends!)
