    Hi all,
    i was thinking about buying a 650 daytona, has anyone got any
    views on this bike good or bad. the reviews look favourable on
    all the sites i've looked at but theres nothing like owners views
    or previous owners views. Gotta keep up with a 2004 600 gixxer.
    o_O thanks.

    I rode one last year, ballistic for a 600ish, no problems keeping up with a gsxr600, would say it's closer to my 750 I had. Depending which year you get the older ones seat is leant forward, pushing goolies into the tank. Not sure you'll have your licence long if you do get one!

    Good luck

    Good bikes. Better fueling and power than the 600 because they lengthened the stroke a little.
