Not to scare you or anything, but you can get killed on an R6 just as easy as you could on an R1.

Dun't get all crazy and $hit and respect the machine and you will be just fine

I could never get tired of being able to accelerate from 75-95 in like 1-2 seconds.

The main thing is, you really have to watch out for cars on these things.
Not exactly. No beginner respects the bike and has any concept of throttle control. Add 160+hp and a very unforgiving chassis.....

I don't anyone should get a race replica bike as their first bike.

How come when I asked you if I should get a 600, you told me that I should get a 1,000

Actually, Brian's car DOES feel different. Shifting is very smooth in his... even in other AP2s I have driven it is not as smooth. The suspension is nice... not too stiff for street driving. The exhaust also makes a pleasant little rumbly noise. Oh~ and that Mugen seat... yum yum! It seemed to fit me just perfectly!

Dunno... maybe it's all the Mugen parts... the car just feels a lot more substantial. Not so "go kart" feeling anymore.

Though I do like my go kart. hahaha
