I'm trying to look at the big picture here. The hard core of sportbiking has been at 600 cc for a long time, but it's not really ideal for real world riding. Don't you think that eventually we'll be back to 750 as a kind of 'normal' size, and the bigger machines will be so damn fast that some congressman will get the govt involved, and make life hard for hyperbikes? That smells like the future to me.

I got a ten year old VFR with a big a$$ windscreen and several battle scars. Looks like we got a test! Uh, exactly how many people will be sharing said room in said 'seedy motel'? That could be a deal breaker.

First off; Ole thank you! You're a brave man!

Sean,

I presume Ole has signed an iron clad waiver - Given what MO usually does to Triumph sportbikes;

Maybe you should give him a subscription to another online mag so he can't read the history of blown motors.

I've been waiting for MO to test the 675 before parting with any $. Go for it!
