Having gotten used to riding a ZX9R and then an FZS1000 (both bigish, powerful bikes), having just gotten in from riding my new FZS 600 home it was a bit of a slap in the face!
The things like a bicycle to ride, feels very small and really tips into corners in a very nice way indeed with little effort. Wasn't originally that impressed with the power (although I did expect that having dropped 400ccs) but then remembered you actually have to rev a 600 - tried that and it gave me a rather pleasent surprise!
Did about 70 miles, seemed comfy enough and it reckons i've done 1/4 of a tank so looks good from an mpg perspective.
Initial things now are to get some photos taken and uploaded, give her a clean now she's been spattered in bugs, set the sag on the suspension, get a scottoiler and probably a bagster tak cover too!
