For you...They are all exactly the same. Pick the color that looks prettiest, not joking at all. The specs are almost identical, and 5hp here, better shock there, it all evens out in the end.

I suggest ninja 500r

With who riding the 1000RR? Elmer Fudd? It REALLY depends on what type of riding you will be doing.

There are much better bikes for commuting and road trips! If it's mostly the looks of an SS you're going for, I guess you could try a corbin saddle and some bar risers, taller windscreen etc. to make it more tolerable for ya.

all the bikesyou have listed are so close in performance that it really would not make a difference in your riding unless you were on the track.

If the main reason you want one of the bikes you mentioned is looks...you better keep looking at something else. I can't speak to 2 of them, but I will tell you the 600 RR and the 600 F4i are not starter bikes. Look at the threads posted here about starter bikes and see what advice people here give. Or, ignore people who have been riding sportbikes for some time and you can look like this: or worse

For starters,there's not much you can do to turn a 600RR into a touring bike.

Next thing is,you dump the clutch on one of these bikes your looking at and you're gonna look like BB up there.^^

These are not good bikes to start on at all,and yes you are starting all over comeing from a automatic with 125cc's.
