the gap between the middleweights and the superbikes has been shrinking with every generation in terms of handling and weight. There is still a difference and generally corner speed and quickness still favor the 600s but the difference is not what it used to be. Recent bike of the year or some odd test in Sport Rider test pitted the ZX6R against a couple liter bikes and it was an eye opening test really. Bottom line was that you REALLY REALLY had to work the 6R to keep up with the big boys but when you did, the additional corner speed and agility offered kept it in striking distance the whole time.
