Excellent review. I am deciding between getting this and Suzuki GS 500.( I am a beginner) I think this might be too heavy for a begginer. I used to ride dirt bikes a lot couple years back and those are in different weight league.

Seems like only a small step down from the 600 Hornet (CB600F). To be fair, I don't lift the front wheel on mine. Well not more than twice. Power comes on real quick, so that makes slow maneuvers a bit tricky. Gotta keep the clutch in and some pressure on the rear brake.
I dont know if its me but I find that it has a very smooth gear ratios, excellent low to mid range settings but if you push it you could still manage to hit a decent speed.. if you know what i mean :P, I forgot to mention before also, I agree with DANCBR1, Excellent beginners bike, very forgiving and it takes care of you if you do something stupid, lol.
Seems like an awesome starter 600. I don't think its too bad lookin' either, like you said its not stunning but its not ugly either. And holy crap it lifted up alot at the front when you took off. Love the light hearted review style =)
@bfmv580 Thanks mate. I’m glad to hear someone likes my reviewing style! Lol I go into a bit more detail in part two, but yeah it’s a good bike. Part two should be a bit more fun to watch. I try a couple 0-60’s and i mess up a launch leaving the lights :D
Iv'e had this bike for nearly a year and love it!!, Great review. I agree about the suspesion, was a bit hard when i brought mine but just thinker it to suit your weight and its all good again. Seat to me is too hard, Drive about 250km and your legs feel like lead, tried out one of these little gell covers to improve it but not much. Might just be best to change the whole seating area into gell, see if that improves it. But great long distance bike. Porto - Faro. No Problem... but lead legs :)
@bandyman87 Cheers man, nice of you to say. This is my first review and it means a lot to hear you enjoyed it, especially since you own the bike that I’m reviewing!
