Oi! Fat twat! I called the 6 a Baby Bird on the 6'ers forum, that's where the term came from. You got a problem with that? Eh? Eh?

And there's nothing mundane about the CBR600, it's a cracking bike.

The Goddess has spoken!!!!

I must admit Artemis has got a point the CBR600 is a cracking bike, my eldest Son, (I know I look to young to have one!) has just swapped his 2000 CBR600F4 for an absolutely immaculate 1997 FireBlade.

I used to really enjoy riding the 600 when he was up from Somerset, also he could occasionally keep up with me when I was riding with me on my VFR.

Are all birdies grumpy bastards like lumpy and MTK?

Is it caused by riding the XX, or just old age?

For gawds sake don't mention VFR's or you will get them really upset.

I agree with you Lisa, assuming that cracking means boring, mundane, characterless etc. The CBR6 is a great girls bike or learner bike to be sure. True it is still better than most riders (girls and beginners excepted) but it is NOT a Baby Bird it is just a 600 UJM made down to a price mundanemobile.

The proper Baby Bird that I saw at the Thetford bash at least looksed like a Bird not the repmobile of bikes.
Oi!, Where's my abuse then, or am I not good enough?

Anyway I wasn't saying it's a baby bird in the way the Thetford baby bird is, but the way the CBR400 is called the baby blade.

In Mick's case, I think he was born like it, with Lumpy he's just spent years perfecting it.

unfortunately it is an eliteism borne out of riding / owning the best bike in the world ever, all others are just also rans.

Ah, now you've qualified it, that's fine.

But, which is quicker through the twisties, an 1100, or a 600?

I really must get myself a go on an XX, soon.

depends on the rider everytime.

Indeed, but what does the same rider find?

I love my 6, but do like it better with a load on. I feel that the front wheel needs a bit more weight on it.

True statement, such a wind up though.:yo:



unfortunately it is an eliteism borne out of riding / owning the best bike in the world ever, all others are just also rans. Unfortunately the CBR6R is like the VFR800 / 750 and is okay at nearly everything but excels at fuck all and are therefore crap, even the black ones. Some peoples blinkered and low personal standards make them actually believe otherwise but a short time of Bird ownership will show this to be correct. Even a Red bird is better than any beginner CBR6. OR

IT COULD JUST BE OLD AGE.
