The 600 coped admirably with the last trip,and seemed to run smoother as the day wore on,but there is always the nagging thought that the thou would be that little bit better!
A common assumption, but take it from me other than the extra power for motorway journeys I found no major advantage since the 600 has a better tank range, which is vital in the likes of France since everything off the motorways shut down at 7pm. :eek
I prefer the lighter bikes. Rode a friends FJR1300 from Nerja (southern Spain) to Cherbourg over 5 days and even though I thoroughly enjoyed it, I found it far to heavy even without the luggage.
A very important pilgrimage that one to Ballyshannon and then to his second home 'Cork'
