It really is, I've never had a bike that was this smooth on the throttle and shifted so nicely even with 20k miles on it!!! I thought the mid-range power on the gixxer was awesome, but its NOTHING compared to this monster.

Yeah, Cad Yellow is sharp. I always was a fan of red.



I did love the engine on the CBR. Pulls like a diesel below 7K RPM, then turns into a Formula 1 engine up to redline. I hated the buzzy handlebars, the extreme riding position, and the heavy handling under 100 MPH. Traded it for my first (2009) FZ6R and have not looked back. Of course, there are days when I do miss the BALLS.

Interesting, my entire front end is tame, no buzzy handlebars, riding position isn't that bad compared to my gixxer, I did about 14k miles on my gixxer so I was used to it. I agree the handling is not the greatest, but then when I compare the speeds on this to my gixxer, I see it's more capable in some ways. The gixxer definitely feels much much smaller though. Power wise though, its no comparison.
