Top speed is not what I'm talking about. The 650 was a ****ing rocket, it didn't matter what gear I was in nor what speed I always had plenty of power to spare. The only time I could even consider going WOT was if I was in a high enough gear at a low enough speed. I could easily beat any car worth under $1,000,000 and that's with a $7,500 bike that is not even close to the performance of a 600. I whole heartily believe the 650 offers far more power than any biker will ever need on the street

That said it was too slow for me so I picked up the Ninja 1000
