cbr954rr's only weigh about 370 an 07 gsxr 600 weighs 357 so weight differance is slight.

im a small dude (kinda) 5'7 175 and my 954 is definatleyy not too big i can throw it around just fine. ive ridden my friend 600rr and its really not any different except its really narrow, way uncomfortable and needs to be raped to go anywheres. i just prefer a wider/bigger bike for comfort and enough power to light the tire up at 50mph. im honestly super glad i didnt get one the 600's i was looking at. if you respect a bke the power shouldnt matter, its when your not afraid of the bike thats when you get fucked up.

i dont think ever every taken any pictures of my bike, not that its anyting special since it was dropped from the previous owner.

if it is your first bike get a 500 get used to it their power is easy to get along with and you can always resell it and upgrade once you are comfortable. there are so many people around here that just jump on a bike and they are dead or their bike is totaled in the 1st week. the newer 600s have a nice powerband if you are lighter. my 1st sport bike was a zx7r and it had plenty of torque. and hp for me. but i had been ridiing since i was 10 on dirt bikes. or if you are into dirtbikes get a super moto! yz or ktm they are sick.

Everybody else is wrong and I am right. Nobody can make the choice for you. Either way, it's wrong. :S
