For those who have, or have had a bike.
It's fast enough for me but my car still beats it 
. The biggest issue I have is latley I notice people just dont pay attention to bikes and I feel un easy riding even across town now.

Also if you get a bike dont go cheap on gear esp the helmet. I first bought a shoei and then i bought an arai and all i can say is, it was a world of a difference (for the good)
I personally do not like Shoei lids. For me they are to tight on my forehead.
ARAI FTW!
lol What a dick! 
I actually wear an XL in all other brands but even a XXL in Shoei isnt comfortable for me.
I see the problem here..... Your bike just isnt fast enough.

Plus it looks freakin awesome! Also arai has different styles of helmets for different shapes of heads
Yeah Sinister is a bad *** lid.
I was considering picking that up but it doesnt match the bike. This was my back up choice... Tommy Gun

Lol yup that was the one I wanted also but the rx7's didnt really fit my head too well but the profile was just right so i ended up getting the sinister
Modern 600 supersports are a very poor choice for first time riders. Modern 600's are a lot faster then most liter bikes of a decade ago. It isn't just the HP of a 600 that is the issue, their are other reasons that make them a poor choice.
1. Very poor slow speed handling and huge turning radius. This makes city riding and parking lot manuevers much more difficult.
2. The powerband can cause lowsides if a big handful of throttle mid corner is applied.
3. Expensive fairings that can be damaged.
Knowing what I know now, I would never recommend a bike with clip on's as a first bike. The best bikes are ones with upright seating positions and wide handle bars. Some good choices for first bikes IMHO would be: SV650, EX250, EX500, FZ6, 599, and Monster 695.
I have owned lots of bikes. From 50cc scooters to a Ducati 1098. I currently ride a BMW R1200GS Adv and a Husqvarna SMR510. I will never own another supersport/superbike for the street ever again. They make great track bikes, but poor streetbikes.
I would rather ride a slow bike fast, then a fast bike slow. Good motorcyclist's are fast on any bike.
