Also, some of you guys weigh 100 lbs more than me  |
I'm not disagreeing with this at all.
I've owned a few "middleweights" BUT admittedly haven't owned one in a long time until I picked up the 07 R6.
I remember how my 600's felt from the early to mid 90's and knew how much these bikes have been improved and when I hopped on the R6 after buying it I thought...geez...is there something wrong with this bike ?
After break in when I was able to run it up through the rev range I realized even more how much this bike was geared for the track.
Yes weight makes a big difference too.
That's why the wife and I can't have the same HP/TQ and bike weight...I don't want her faster than me.
