Size of a 600cc sportbike

I am thinking of getting a R6 or zx-6r and was wondering if anyone that has one or a similar bike thinks it can fit through a doorway. Thanks in advance.

Yes it will fit through a normal front door you may have to move the mirrors but when I had my appartment I brought it through the door and left it in the dining room. I had a F4i. Go with the r6 over the z

Thanks for answering. Why do you think I should get the r6 over the Z? I was just considering the Z because my neighbor is selling one but dont know too much about it.

I actually like the Zx6r. I started riding on a zx6r. Great bike and very flickable.

my personal ranking of the TOP4:

1. gsx-r600 > best handling in class. best mid-range in class. nice new chassis. exceptional brakes. inverted forks. light and very flickable. best all around street and race 600.
2. zx6rr > feels very nice and light. strong engine with good mid-range but a bit slower than gsxr. better suspension than 636.
3. 600rr > best build quality. good chassis. nice swing-arm!! needs improvement in the braking department. needs to shed weight and gain power.
4. r6 > getting an update next year. needs new improvements (brakes being the major thing). still the narrowest bike. runs a bit rough. needs good steering damper. feels shaky at high speed.
