Should i buy a 600cc Sports bike?

[spratman012001]

I've been riding motorbikes for just over a year now, I've had two bikes, a Kawasaki zr250 Balius and a Suzuki bandit gsf400. I've always loved Sports bikes and I feel i could now handle something with a bit more power e.g GSXR 600 or an R6.
Reading some comments on other questions, which i agree with, neither of these bikes are for rookie/ novice riders.
i suppose the question is whether or not a 600cc sports bike is a fairly sensible upgrade from my current 400cc bike or does anyone think that an alternative bike 500/600 cc maybe better before getting on a sports bike?
the bandit is a good bike but looking to upgrade to a sports bike to be more aerodynamic, less sit-up-and-beg.

I went from a 400 Bandit to an FZR400RR-SP and although the 65hp Yamaha was loads quicker than the 50hp Bandit, it was never quite enough... The 600 is only as fast/quick/powerful as the amount of throttle you'll be giving it. Get it and enjoy it.

What about a bandit 600 or a katana 600?
