... for these kind of moves.

i can't wait to get me one of those. :D

also, i guess this means i can trust the stock tires if the need arises that i enter a turn too hot provided the tires have warmed up enough.

and looks like it's not a DB windscreen after all that comes w/ the bike but it's definitely higher than the stock gixxer1000 windscreen.

it looks like 45° lean angle. i wonder if it can still go lower.

I could have told you that the supersports could do that.

Of course that's more a function of skill then bike ability. Most any bike can drag the pegs stock, so long as you're willing to push it.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

yeah, i thought you need some really good AM tires and better suspension for those kinds of moves but i was wrong and you are right. :)

I still think you should get a Daytona 675.

they're cool i admit, but not as cool as the gixxer in my book.

the inline 3 it has going on seems to be the only thing unique about it though. the bodywork looks to generic to me.

plus, i heard it's hard to maintain them since parts are not readily available here.
