The think I like about mine is that it seems to have two personalities. If you keep the revs in the 4-6k range, it performs well in city traffic. If you rev it to 8-11k, it gets pretty darned zippy. Not as zippy as a 600, but very respectable. Of course the last 600 I rode didn't want to cruise without loping below 80mph. It's not a racer, but it's a really good commuter.
