My question is would the jump to a literbike be too much? I know for sure i could handle/control a 600 supersport. But is the 1000supersport going to be too much power? Will it be not much fun as a 600SS? I enjoy riding with passengers pretty often but 30HP is not enough to take off from stops and accelerate as quickly as i would like two-up.
SO.
baby step to a 600SS?
OR
skip to the 1000SS?
BTW I am not selling my ninja this will be second bike. Would love to hear from those who have had both 600 n 1000 so i know the differences.
I've ridden the zx10r and did not like the low revs it was running too much. Maybe i am just used to the High revving 250...

Do you consider 4x the power a baby step? Truth is you will never top out a 600 on the street, even in a straight line
I'd prefer a 600SS over a 1000 and if I ever get a supersport it will be strictly a twisty/track bike. Maybe in 3-5yrs I'll get a 636
