Sucks about the R6 man. The Duke and Duc don't seem like they have much in the way of travel hookups other than a pilion bag. Nothing in the way of hard stuff.

The ZX6r has VG midrange power for a 600, like night and day from the R6. Though with a pipe, gearing a remap, the R6 is a another animal.
Everybody says the 600rr is comfortable. I thought it was a f'n ball buster to the max. Idk, it just has never has fit me correctly. My friend"s 05 R6 wasn't half bad, but the newer gens suck. It seems the zx has gotten progressively more aggressive as the models move on. My friend's 06 636 is very comfortable, my other friends 08 seems a tad more agressive but I still like the position. The reach on the 09+ seems so much farther (but I havnt ridden this gen, so I cant say much about it). I think the Gixx takes the cake. The 06 and 08 I have ridden just seem like you sit "in" the bike versus "ontop" of the bike with the others.
