I had both CBR600RR and a M50. I like a sportbike better. Went with a Honda 919 this time and have the best of both worlds. Comfort and if you want to tear it up the bike is more then capable.

Personally I wanted the best of both worlds so to speak when I decided to go for my current ride, a Bandit. It has the sporty looks which I wanted and it handles, brakes, and accelerates well like a sport bike but it is also more upright and relaxed with its seating position ( more cruiser like ). This second point is very important to me as I'm 6'3" ( 190 cm ).
