It was my "lay down" bike. Once I got the first lay down outa the way, I went out and got a 600. Then when the throttle fell asleep, I went out and got a 750. I never could out do that bike though. Don't get me wrong, I could "handle" the liters and even the hubby's zx14, but I could never get them anywhere near their potential, I tried with the 750, but it continued to kick my butt! Lol!
You wrecked a 250 so you bought a faster bike? this makes zero sense. The throttle on a 600 will never fall asleep. You fall asleep. When you can go flying into a 40 mph turn at 70 and without even thinking about it for one second down shift two gears while match revving it while applying the brakes leaning over then cracking the throttle mid corner all while keeping the bike revved so the power is there let me know. A 600 ridden aggressive will never dip under 11,000 rpms. They are by far the most fun bikes to ride.
Anybody can handle a zx-14 or 1000. It will only go as fast as you make it go. The issue with the 1000s and the bigger bikes it will go from 0-100 in 3 seconds while a 600 will take 6. That same street you normally hit 75 on then hitting the brakes on a 600 you now come in doing 120. Thats why people die. The speed. They cant control it. They dont expect the bike to be carrying that much difference in speed. They freak out and bail or wreck.
Also a 600 wont go much faster than 150. If anybody tells you they did 170 on a stock or piped and geared 600 they are full of crap plus they are a moron for going that fast. A stock 1000 will do 186 which is what they are limited too. Hell My busa will do 186 in 5th gear and I have another gear to upshift too.
