You gotta laugh / be impressed at how fast the Bug goes past the bike though despite the biker going for it

Bikes are fast don't get me wrong but you can't change the laws of physics.

Make your own conclusions.......

Ok, slightly off topic (I know bikes are faster than cars, lol), but is it worth going for the CBR1000 when the CBR600 is so quick and presumably handles better ?

Thats my way of thinking which is why i went for the 600RR. More than enough performance for my abilities and cheaper to insure than a blade.

if u have *****,get the 1000, if only small ***** go for the 600.

money is an issue, 1000 is juicier/dearer to insure and run (bigger rear tyre etc)

1000 is more fun, yes 600 is fun but the knockin down of gears to keep up with big bikes gets tiresome.
