nice. I always liked how light and nimble smaller bikes, like 600cc are.

I like my 636 a lot, i wish it was faster though. I am looking at maybe a gsxr 750 or a 1000 cc bike. I want something that will pull the front wheel in first gear.

your 636 won't pull the wheel up in first gear how much you weight?

it all depends on how you throttle it, my 06 RR will barley pull it up in first gear on acceleration alone... a slight tug or blip of the throttle will yank that ------ right up tho
