I took it for a ride yesterday with a friend/neighbor who has one as well. He used to race professionally and he weighs 150 pounds compared to my 210 pounds. He leaves his driveway and wheelies 200 feet down the road......great Now how am I going to keep up with him???
Well, he toned it down and I followed his lines and it really was fun. We took the same route as our last year's Tiumph Brewery Porsche Meet. It was a little different on two wheels though!!!

Man, I am lucky I am not dead after riding all those years. I was a big GSXR guy. Mostly 1100s, one injected 750 built up. We use to see who could scrape the pegs. The one that could hold it there longer would win. That was with flip flops on!!

one thing that's amazing is how BLISTERINGLY fast these new bikes are. 600s now are as fast or faster than liter bikes were 10 years ago and liter bikes now forget about it. I have literally ridden for about as long as i have been able to walk and the new liter bikes scare the **** out of me. I rode a friend's R1 around the block the other day and am actually amazed that more people aren't killing themselves on these things.

Its amazing how quick the 600's are...my buddy just got a brand new Honda 600 (I believe CBR600??). On the highway we slowed to like 40 and punched it up to like 70 just to see how we would accelerate and we were DEAD EVEN. I mean granted up top (like 100+) I probably would have started pulling, but I am driving slow right now due to many tickets....

I love it. They both are actually the R models. The 999R is incdredible.

Here is another shot!!
