Quite honestly, this is VERY attractive to me. I wanted to read up more about the specs and such and started here: http://www.energicasuperbike.com/energi ... superbike/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; It is way the heck beyond my budget but hey... maybe one day. I really would like to try one of these out just to see. The more I read about these bikes the more my interest is engaged.

I think you would like it less when you picked it up off of the side stand. It's a beast. Look at the weight and compare it to your 600.

Ugh, good point. :( At first thought 50ish more pounds doesn't seem like much; still, I'm all for trying at least once!!

Started riding the VFR after only riding the SV for years now and it was a surprise to me how much different the VFR is than the SV. I can feel the extra 100lbs. of the VFR.
