Luke ditched the whole EVO plan, will tie up too much money running costs etc = no life going out etc etc. only had the veccy since jan and spent 3k+ on it as well.
gonna keep the veccy for day to day transport and get a bike, going to do my DAS licence asap.

U need to do the licence that covers u, near me I sat my test on 125cc as I did the other bit 1st...
If I was to sit it now Id do it on a 500 so u get used to the power difference. U would have to ring ur local place to see what they recceomend everywhere different

According to the May Motorcyclist mag.
Gixxer 600
0-60 = 3.13
0-100 = 6.71
1/4 mile = 10.77 @ 128.2
HP = 103.6 @ 14k
Torque = 48.9 @ 11k

SetH I would reccoemnd a SV650 tho rather than a sports bike like that unless u really a rider. The SV is a Vtwin sounds fcukin awesome and is more comfortable for 2riders IMO
