a cbr600 in the 8"s no way... not in the 1/4, and a 1000gsxr in the 8;s doubt that as well, unless its mod'd pretty heavy mid 9's ok maybe MAYBE. and i OWN one, road raced for quite a few years etc.

as for the 600 sportbikes being capable... yep, sure are!!!!! honestly bikes are sooooo much more about rider skill, that honestly a very well ridden 250 ninja will spank a decently ridden gsxr1000 on a race track. dont believe me, go look up lap times, lol.

as for the original poster, get a bike ya like, thats not too big, and get GOOD GEAR. you have fun on the bike, but its the gear that may save your life. keep yours eyes open and have fun!!!
