You know that it is your call on your preferences and abilities in the end?

I like my zx7 and the 10r for the streets. Good power bands and are easy to ride ie shift points etc. Not sure on the 6r, but I would rock the 6r since you already own it.

I wouldnt move to a bigger bike just cuz they have em as long as u dont mind shifting a bit more that bike is a rocketship that will keep up with mostanything at semi sane speeds on public roads and ive found i actually go slower most of the time on my (big) bike than i did on my zx6r mostly cuz it seemed to turn almost telepathicly and its lighter weight and revvier nature seemed to instal a confidence i just dont have on this one in the corners. but on the other hand i do love the extra power and ability to get gone without having to wind it up so much if you have been riding awhile im sure you could handle the extra power but do you need it...ya probably but for you not to impress your buds
