| Not sure about that
I've got a 1998 748sps and there's no way it's as powerful as the new CBR600RR (although the powers at the top end )
When I was in Almeria in April a bloke on a 748R forgot his keys so hired an RR & was shocked by how much more powerful the RR was than his 748R & how well it handled - his words not mind
Don't get me wrong the 748 is a great track bike, with great handling and an addictive sound but it's an old design/engine now and a relatively underpowered and the jap 600's have caught up and overtaken in quite a few cases the RR being one of them - still wouldn't buy an RR though way too bland!!!
For me the 748 is a much more involving bike to ride - that's why I've hung onto it for 4.5 years.............. |
