Even the 600's do now...which is officially retarded.

Yup.

Yeah the C mode on the 750 is really tame, cant imagine what it's like on the 600.

those tuning mode things are kinda dumb to me. I really dont understand the purpose of them anyways. if you want the power of a 600, buy a 600, not a 1000.

Supposed to be for track days. On a wet track you can select a different mode. All they do is lower the throttle response. The top end is still there, it just doesn't accelerate as fast.

I agree. Pretty much gay.

Doesn't matter to me, I leave it in A mode 100% of the time so I don't worry about it. It's nice to have it you ever do a track day in the rain though.

Fair enough....but I'm not a fan of modern electronics. Takes the control and excitement out....and it takes less skill to pilot the machine.

I like the option of putting it in C and riding in the wet. Just to see the difference. You wouldn't catch me riding in the wet anyway though.
