Wow, my first ride out and I must say I was not expecting the amount of low down grunt these have, I used to ride a gixxer 6, the mille blows it into space. The brakes are awesome and steering feels really nice and don't get me started on the sound, I wanted to keep her as standard as poss so went for standard sized sprockets but will change them at some point, I don't think I will go back to in lines after this, one thing that does get me is the speed feeling, I mean I was doing 80 and it felt like I was cruising at 40/50, anyone else have that feeling, are they really that smooth
 
Ha ha yep they are deceptively fast ...didn't u realise twins have so much torque that's half the fun don't try and rev them just ride the torque.....a change in hearing does make them more fun
 
My neighbours will soon get to love the sound at 6:15 every morning, but that power out of bends is so addictive. My dad had one and I always wondered why he wouldn't let me have a go, I now know !
