Newbie question....

I've been looking at some used gsx-r's and r6's. I have the cash in hand so i'm pretty much read to pick one up. My main question is, what major changes between say the 01's-04's? I searched and found some hp diff's but on the street...how much diff are they?

I dont think it is.... but all the 05 bikes are badass the 636R ,600rr, and gsxr 600. Plus I like the 01-03 better but thats just me. The 04 and up are growing on me but not too much.
