The 6 year old 748RS and the 675 looked to be holding their own, not what I would call getting smoked

[quote=twpd]. It's ok if you like that sort of thing but, a 749 (or a 675) would leave it for dead on anything but the longest straight.

Only with a decent rider on.....hehehehe.....

Nail on the head there.:)

I was very tempted to swap the 748 for a new R6 after a test ride.

I've spent a bit of time on track on the new R6 and it definitely is fast. I haven't learned how to ride the thing properly but first impressions are that it's very light and flickable, brakes well!, but if you're not above 12kRPM absolutely nothing is going to happen.

Still, a few people I know who've ridden them more than me and back to back with this years R1 (;)) say that the R6 is still the quicker bike around the track. And these boys are fairly quick and know what they're on about.

looks great, I like the shiny stripe on the edge of the tyre too, it looks just like mine.
