| hi dave i bought mine just before the winter it was up 2400 but after a bit of haggling i got it for 2100 and full service(belts and heads)six months tax and mot and warrenty, everything was fine with the bike chain/sprockets tyres batteryetc the dealer said he wanted to make room for some new stock!!! i think i got a good deal as i am having a lot of fun on it, i intend to keep the bike for a while the power isnt mind blowing i would say fine for a first bike -- but as the fiscus fish says the slow speed handling isnt easy--town driving has been made easier adding a 14 tooth sprocket but the front end rises under hard acceleration(it didnt with15 teeth)-insurance wise i paid 106 fully comp the only probs ive had is a carb icing -shell optimum and pro fst additive almost eradicated this --the carbs feel lumpy at low revs but have got use to this and working on an alternative to smooth things out- the mirrors give me a fine reflection of my elbows (but i am very broad built) brancato mirrior extensions have helped big time--i didnt find the riding position comfy at first but i after i relaxed into the bike i find 100 mile rides no problem well thats my run down of my 600ss im not the fastest rider on the streets but i do have fun!!! lets us know if you buy it  dave [Edited on 8-5-2005 by monstermob 998]  |
