I posted a thread earlier this week asking for advice on a Daytona 675. I took the plunge yesterday and bought it:D

So here she is... She doesnt have a name yet but I've already cursed at her several times when I cracked open the throttle :eek:

Details: 2008 Daytona 675

I've been thinking about picking one of these up for my upgrade. Tell us all about how it feels! Ridden any other 600s? How's it compare?

You won't regret it one bit and it's definitely not a bike everyone else has. The bike has a lot of character with its looks and sweet sound.

Sorry I haven't riddin any other bikes besides the 250R unless sitting on them counts lol.*

The ergonomics are very aggressive yet I find it to be somewhat comfortable. I feel very connected to the bike as it respond to any input or body English instantly. The throttle response and pull is insane, at least for me, coming from a 250. Speaking of pull, I never really understood "(insert name of bike) has a lot of pull" until I rode the D675. For me having the power to speed up quickly on the freeway *is a God send, my little 250 just has no umphhh. I have literally had the bike for 32 hours so take what I say as a grain of salt because I don't have a lot of seat time.*

Merry Christmas as well...

I purchased the bike for $4,800 with 8000 miles. It is completely stock however, does have frame sliders and front/back spools. I Also got a pitbull stand, cheap front wheel chock, and a heavy duty wheel chock. The seller was asking $5,300 originally. The price I paid is right in the middle of fair market value. To me the bike was well worth what I paid.

Also, I pay $43 a month for full coverage insurance with uninsured motorist and a $500 deductible. This could have been a deal breaker had the Insurance of been over $100 a month.
