Yes scarlet and black but I won't be doing any new bike shopping anytime soon...according to the wife.

The 600 is easier to flick around on the track...the R1 is easier on the street because I don't have to downshift everytime or at least as often when I want to speed up.

You have to wind the R6 up above 12k to really get the power...but once above 10k or so it wakes right up.
