I found the same thing with my Daytona 675. A great bike and very user
friendly as far as sports bikes go. Comparing it with a CBR600R was interesting. I
could go faster on the 675 and found it a nicer bike to ride.
Once its on song its brilliant. One of the best rides I had was on a lonely
road going head to head with a mate (ex A grade racer) on his RS. Its the only
time I've kept up with him and managed to gain some ground in the corners. In
a straight line it just skipped over the bumps if you kept the power on. In a
bumpy corner, life got a little bit interesting shall we say. Like I said - a
brilliant bike to be sure.
The only down side to all this, is that it didnt come into its own until I
hit 150kph!
To ride it properly, I was risking my licence and more on public roads and
I'm not yet in a position to be doing regular track days.
So I chopped it in for a Scrambler and I'm having even more fun! Just at more
sensible speeds.
Cheers,
Brett
