Passed my MOD2 today with 2 minors.

Got home, calmed down and took the 600 out for a play.

Holy jobby it's fast, after a while I managed to keep the throttle pinned long enough to hit the 16000rpm limit in second gear, which put me the wrong side of...... well..... instant ban speeds.

To have that kind of acceleration from a car you would need to spend upwards of 200,000 to purchase it in the first place. Or a planet sized turbo which would have more lag than a colleague of mine thats 2 weeks away from retirement.

It's properly scary, and awesome in equal amounts.

Maybe I'll stop missing the Lude eventually???

I give it a year til you say it slow! Bike are in a different league of speed! Just take it easy out there mate, its so easy to come unstuck, even at slow speeds!

Also stop bumping this, every time you do I end up spending hours looking at bikes, I fancy a gsxr750 next
