2003-2006 cbr 600 rr or ninja 636 (2005-2006)????

beside personal preference, which one is a better buy for performance , comfort,... yaddy yadddy.. . thx
if it was me i would get the 07 cbr or the 07 kawi. i am an avid suzuki fan and have ridden a lot of bikes still own a r6 but i like my gsxr better. but they stopped making the 636 so the after market parts are going to die off for it. not to mention the new 599 ninja still has more horsepower than the 636 but honestly i would get the honda i think finally after about 6 years honda finally made a good bike not trying to just be in the middle anymore. the whole electronic damning on a 600 that bike is going to handle like a dream. plus supposedly 109 hp at the wheel compared to its 105 of the 06 not sure how the torque was affected. other than the fact they ripped off the k6 fairings maybe that is what i like about. i think the honda is going to handle better than the r6 and have the grunt that it was lacking.

Performance is close enough that it shouldn't make a difference to a regular slow guy like you. Are you a professional racer? Probably not. Your lap-times are not going to drastically decrease by picking one over the other.

Comfort is something that is personal to YOU. Each bike will fit you differently if you're 5'10" 160lbs, or 6'2" 220lbs; have long legs and a small torso, or stubby legs and a long torso; a history of back-problems, or a history of knee problems; etc, etc...

Just go sit on them both, picture each parked in your garage...and you can make the decision for yourself.
