R6 or Daytona 675

What bike should i get next.

i do about 50 miles a day round trip 35 miles open road & rest in Aberdeen city.

I have narrowed it down to 2 bikes that id really like.

SO

Yamaha R6

675 every time. The R6 makes a lousy road bike.

The R6 is just lousy in my opinion.

The 675 is a lurvly looking bike, I've not ridden one, but when I sat on one I wasn't comfy. The seat is high and angles up at the back which in turn forces a LOT of pressure on the wrists.

Does the Street Triple have a better position? Everyone raves about them!

675 only cos it looks better, dogs danglies.

I would go for the R6, not a new one mind the old ones arent as bad for the road or so I've been told

was looking at an 2005 2006 on both bikes

The R6 I've ridden was a 2004, 7k on the clock..........utterly dissappointed.

(I know that no 2 bikes are ever the same!)

675 for me.

IMO the extra 75cc plus being a tripple will make town riding far nicer than the screamy 4, same reasons I personally find the SV nicer than a 600 round town.

Plus the 675 looks fab and is meant to be an ace handler.

I've owned both! Current bike is a Daytona 675, previous bike was an 2006 R6.

I sold the R6 because I moved to Oz and instead of buying the same again, I thought I would go for the other bike I really liked - the 675.

If I was given the same choice again, I'd take the R6. Most of my riding is on the track though.

Get the R6.... cos I want a 675 and no one else can have one
