I'm not going to bother with twin exhausts or probably not even twin disks. I don't like the way my wheels have been finished in red with silver rims so I will be changing them and probably to black because I like the way they look and maybe a single seat unit.

I'm totally happy with the performance of it because in real terms its plenty fast enough. I've had 140bhp bikes but there is not a lot of places to exploit that kind of power, too many riders try to make up for lack of skill by buying faster bikes, it just makes them more dangerous.
My favourite pasttime now is getting out on the twisty roads and making the superbikes look silly. The 600 handles like a 250, I can throw it round bends like its a toy, its one of the best little packages I've ever ridden if you take it for what it is. Fair enough its not as fast as any of the other bikes I've had but everytime I ride it I have a grin like a cheshire cat.

Its a dry weather toy and will sit in the garage until I feel like a spin, although we have got a trip planned to ride down to my dads house in the South of France in August.
