I test-rode it back-to-back with the speed triple the other day...and although it is light and nimble, I found the throttle to be a bit too sntchy for my riding style and it felt like I was on a bicycle rather than a motorbike, which made it very flickable and the torque in third gear was absolutely amazing for a 675cc motor.

I still prefered the bigger triple for all-round usability though.
