is it worth it to save money and buy an F5? or will I regret it because it doesn't have as much performance?

If you are used to riding a EXT then an F5 or F6 are gonna seem a lot nicer. What do your friends ride? How fast do you ride? What is the price difference? If it is less than $500 then I would get the F6.

Go for the F-6. You be kicking yourself later. The thing absolutely rips!

The F6 is one of the fastiest 600s on the snow. It can rival some of the 700s out there and beats just about all the 600s and even Yamaha's 1000 triple. That said, the 500 is the 440 racer enlarged to a 500 for consumers and can outrace 500 as well as some of the 600s.

f6 for sure, my budy has a f5, its not that impressive, comes out of the hole like a bat outa hell but i could only get 98 out of it on ice, with 144 picks, his dad has a zr600 with pipes, i rode that, it dosnt come out of the hole as fast but at about 50 i tooled by the f5 and it toped at 106, im sure the f6 will be faster then a zr

I would have to say the f6 because you will probably want to keep up w/ your buddies.

I asked the same question before, and I found that getting the F6 is the better choice simply for the efi.
