    I thoroughly enjoyed this review. I'm interested in buying a CBR 600 F for my son only because I have the RR model. I think it would be nice for us to switch between the two bikes depending on what riding style we would like on the day of riding. You gave out all the right information and it's good to see that one can also have fun on these bikes. There are sadly none on the market at this point in time, but thankfully we are not rushing. I hope to find a blue and white one like yours

    I've had it since 2018. Amazing bike, the riding position is great even on long distance rides. I've done 1000km in 13 hours and it was very comfortable. My only issue is that they are rare so if you ever drop it and need parts, you'll struggle😢 (i know from experience). Excellent review🔥💪🏾

    Thanks so much for your comments bro, I haven't dropped mine thankfully so I wouldn't know. But I know that superfairings has aftermarket replacement fairings. I'm not sure about lights and so the speedo cluster though. I'm sure those will be rare. The riding position is amazing. I've put on 18000 kms in a year now and I loved every bit of it 😊 Super comfortable and very fun to ride. Stay safe on the roads brother 🙏

    Nice video, congrats! I’m getting in love with this CBR model. I’m thinking on getting one, after selling my Tiger 800 last year. I’ve had a MT07 before, now I want something in between those 2 bikes that I had before. This seems to be the one, sporty but comfy. Do you know if it’s comfortable for the passenger? Cheers

    Hi there thanks for watching and for the kind words! 😁 100% it's comfortable for the passenger as well. It's has a large seat with lots of comfort and I've taken my mom and my wife on the bike with no issues at all. It has the power to carry both passengers with ease, and the bike is no slouch at all for what it is. It has really great low down torque which makes it great for commuting as well 😊

    I love the full fairing look myself, and I’m currently after a sports bike but the only problem I have is that I have a bit of a shit lower back 😢. I was considering the gsxr-750 but I’m not sure I’ll be even able to handle that, recently came across the cbr600f and it’s pretty much ticked all the boxes. Also the price of these is fantastic. I’ve got a 2010 cbf600 and it feels fast to me but lacks top end, I know this is faster top end so I’d need to test one out. I’m sure it’s a lot faster than mine so I’ll be happily satisfied with this if I picked it over the 750.

    The cbr600f has 6nm more torque and 24bhp more with a high rpm from 10.5 on my cbf to 12.5 on the cbr. How noticeable do you reckon that would be?

    You'll be very surprised at how capable these are. The top end isn't the greatest but it's definitely not slow as well. It's enough to have a great time. You have to test one out to see how awesome they are. Just make sure it has an exhaust. It changes the bike completely 👌
