+1 for yellow wheels. That looks sick!

as for the windscreen, i just took it off.

Hmm. It looks like there's something else going on with it in that pic. Guess I've never looked at my bike from the front without the windscreen on.
Agreed. I thought it was some sort of spike toof may have added. Looking back at the pic more closely, it is off to the left of center. Looks cool though.

So paid for it Thursday! Haven't touched a thing on it regarding mods yet, but I'm getting ideas muahaha.
On another note...all my dreams have been about driving around my city/familiar places and actually feeling like I'm riding, and what I would do if certain situations happened...it's literally a visualization, the same that athletes do before games except it's for my ride. I give my subconscious a high five every time I wake up and remember such dreams, just because I'm not doing it on purpose lol. Yeah...I'm a Psychology Major nerd at heart <3
PS: It's a joy to ride...the more I ride the more I want to ride

Well... Finally made the trade this morning... and joined the ranks, officially.
It's a new copper/black 2011 (looked all over for this color scheme). Had .1 miles on it when they handed me the keys...
On the 30+ mile trip back from the dealer, I really enjoyed how smooth it throttled on, starting in 1st... The shifting could be a just a bit more even, however, I think that'll come with break in.
It's quiet for a 600, but, *does* have its own distinctive sound (which I believe *can* be heard), and I don't think I'll be modding that.
I'm a believer in hard break-in, so I ran it up and down the RPM range, however, well short of red-lining, and without going WOT. I'm letting it cool, and I'll do it again in an hour or so... However, the "avoid prolonged operation over 5800 rpm, for 600 miles, and then 7000 rpm to 1000 miles," isn't going to be my 'path.' I've had very positive response to a hard break in before. I imagine there's a debate thread somewhere on here about that...
Anyway, here's the new stud... ummmm, steed...

There is indeed a thread with lots of debate. These engines seem bulletproof though, and I've got well over 7000 miles on mine, and like you I didn't stick to the OM recommended break in process. I always run my engines in harder than they say, and (knock on wood) haven't had any engine issues. Carburator issues, yes, but that's not from how I broke my Ninja 500 in...

Just got the same bike yesterday! It was a hard color to find, but I'm glad I waited for it.Well... Finally made the trade this morning... and joined the ranks, officially.

Congratulations... hope you're enjoying yours as much as I am mine...
(I spend any more time on it, they'll be sending out search parties -- I'll be ready for the 1st service by next weekend, at this rate...)
And, yeah... the Copper/Raven was absolutely worth waiting for... Even my ex likes it!
