I'll agree with everything posted. The 06 was a pig. Turned in slow and felt a tad heavy in comparision to the sharper 05 and 08. However, I put GP revalved forks and a triple clicker Penske shock with some race stickies and it was night and day. The bike was only a tad better turning wise than the 05/08, but it wasn't setup too agressively. I also put a PC3R and a pair of Akras carbon fiber slipons on the beast along with some rearsets. The power was too much as I almost binned it after a nasty tankslapper splitting lanes at 115mph. The bike rocked and was dead stable tho. I also like the fact that your in the bike and not on top of it like my current 600rr. Kawis and Suzukis seem to fit me better than the Hondas.
How come you sold it then, foo?
