Honda CBR600F (2000-2007)

As my first big bike i couldn't of made a better choice to start with, it's comfy and easy to ride like a tourer but get the tacho needle up above 8-9 thousand rpm and you'll be able to keep up with it's rivals i.e. the R6, ZX6R and the GSXR600. Althought it is extremely easy to handle i would recommend a steering damper if you live in a village surounded by pot hole covered roads because as soon as you hit the power band you get some god aweful steering wobbles but the damper accompanied with a good set of tires and there shouldn't be anything in the way of giving you a superb ride and because it's honda the bike should be able to keep it's performance long after any of it's rivals!

my cbr 600f gets me to work round the track fun need down sundays anything you want. I admit i want a bigger powered bike but my cbr 600 is not going to leave my garage! it might just get a few friends.

great all round bike. top build quality, super reliable.

ive had my cbr 600 for a few months now and i don't think i could have picked a better bike,i've only been rideing big bikes for a few years so my expeiriance is ltd its not as quick as its rival sports tourers, but they are certainly a better ride than most,equipment choice is more varied,handling is brilliant,economy is good and the power is just right.In fact the only thing that i could possably pick up on, is when i go to put the indicators on, sometimes i catch the horn, but that could just be my sausage fingers!

I had 2 CBR 600's. Excellent bikes to hone your skills on. Honda's are forgiving, smooth and reliable. Make a mistake, and you get the chance to correct it. Fall off, and you can replace the broken bits! A good machine for any one of any age.

brilliant bike, does everything thats asked of it. i can comfortably commute, go long distance and go for a quick blast on it and it always brings a smile to my face.

i am now on my second cbr 600f and consider it to be the best all rounder on the market. How some people can call it bland is beyond me. I,ve tried the R6, GSXR600, ZX6R and allthough they may be marginally quicker on a track,they just dont match up as an everyday machine. The bike is allday comfy, quick enough for most, as well built as they come and an easy bike to ride quickly ( very forgiving). I would recommend this bike to the most experienced of riders and as a first big bike

i thought of buyibg a cbr600f but couldnt fit on it as it is 2 big! had to lean way over the tank to reach handle bars plus my feet barely touched the ground! Was gutted as i really love honda

I bought my CBR600F in September 07, so not had that long in riding it, but for the small amount of miles i have done on it i wouldn't swap it. It is just a perfect ride, a very good bike for my first. It has been in the garage for ages now, i go out occasionally to start it up and it always starts first time no problems. I just think it's a good all round bike, good handling, comfy ride, and is a good looking bike! It will be my bike for many years to come just love it!

I bought mine in 2002 - CBR600F-1.Kept it for just under 5 years during which I rode the 60 mile round trip to work in to London most days,did 2 track days and went around Europe on a 2000-miler every summer.This bike is the complete package.It's really comfy,light and fast with excellent protection from the weather.Commuting I was filling up every 130 miles but the tank gives you 150+ on long trips.I added a longer screen,hugger and blue flame end can.Rode woth Oxford soft luggage -this bike gives you anchor points galore,a centre stand and grab rail.Brakes good,engine faultless,quality and reliability never an issue.I'm looking for another one as I've looked around and can't find anything that compares.
