Yes, test rode the 600 but engine wasn't for me. I really liked the look/ergonomics though. Have not rode the 750 yet but all the reviews i've seen say the bottom end torque should be substantially better. Basically the 600 wasn't 'bad' by any means but a bit too revvy and whizzy for my riding style. Would like to try a Blade but too expensive really.
Hmmm, lots of positives on the buying new front - expected lots of 'don't do it!' answers but appears the depreciation may not be such an issue, and its a bike i plan to keep for a while. Had also looked at the new CB1000R which i liked very much and found the ride position great. Doesn't look as good as the Gixxer though!
The fact its also not had anyone else's mucky mitts on it or tat bolted to it is also a big plus.
