I've rode 600's before, but I wanted more power, now whenever I get back from Kuwait in 6 months, I'm just gonna get a Hayabusa. Might as well get the fastest thing out there because you wil get bored with what you have,and will always want to go faster. This way, I can go a little faster each time as I get used to it, and when I finally get bored with the stock power, I can put a turbo on it. We have lots of open roads and few curves around here..
