    I had a daytona 600 for 3 years before the blade. I bought it without a test ride in Jan 2011, ran it in while there was ice and snow and grime and mud on the road. It's so confidence inspiring and smooth, and dare i say it, easier to ride than the 600, especially round town due to the torque. It felt slower as it's so smooth, until you look down and you`re doing warp factor 9 mr sulu.:D
    No stamping through the gearbox and hitting 15k revs everywhere as the low down power is fantastic as is the midrange.
    Handles like a 600 once you get the sussy sorted and is just a fantastic bike. Weight is not a problem as it's so compact, you'll love it!

    Went out on Sunday for a wee spin, was cold but that didn`t bother me. Had the biggest, cheesey grin on my face.Should have bought one years ago. Just hope the weather stays dry so that I can get the thing run in before the proper weather comes in. I have heared that the engine will change once its run in - is that true or just a load of bollocks?
