Third bike, First sportbike. Want some ridin advice not buyin advice.

alright I will give you a little bit of background on me that way I dont get a bunch of folks sayin "get this, get that". I am a HUGE big red fan. I previously owned a nighthawk 250 and in the little time i rode that (when it was running that is)I learned how to shift and brake and feel comfortable moving on a bike. After that I took the MSF course and will always suggest it to someone. after that I bought a brand new Shadow Aero 750, my first "big" bike. I rode it for like 2 yrs. Im in the navy now and stationed up in the northwest where it rains alot. I havent ridden in over a year and want a cbr600rr. Is there any quirks about the bike that i should know of and does the power kick in really early on the roll of the throttle? I still consider myself a beginner since i havent had consistent riding in a while. also i know turning a SB is a little different than a cruiser and I would greatly appreciate cornering tips especially considering the wet conditions. also suggestions for good all season tires would be welcome too.  

Research counter-steering it will give allow you to maneuver turns at a higher speed.  Depending on the types of turns your planning on taking you may also want to do some research on downshifting(using your slipper clutch to match engine to speed to road speed before a turn) that allows you to come of the apex of the turn with a lot more throttle and control.  

power doesn't come on until well into the rev range, and chances are you won't rev it that high for quite some time anyways. you'll be fine on it provided you take it easy initially. don't just get on it and hammer it to the redline.
if you're gonna own a sportbike you need to keep good high performance tires on it, though you could probably get a dunlop roadsmart sport touring tire for the first year while you're still getting used to the bike.

riding in the wet is the same on any bike—smoothness. no jabbing the brakes or gas and you'll be fine.
