    My landlords nephew that lives 2 doors down the street has a 01 1k blue and white with white wheels that's pretty clean. neighbor a few houses in the other direction has a 03 Telefonica scheme 600 that looks brand new (other than the lowering links).

      Telefonica = too much purple
      90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

          That could very well be possible on a tight technical track, especially if the rider jusrt happened to be used ot a 600 more than a 1k. Corners are a great equalizer, that has almost nothing to do with power.

              Congrats on beautiful bike Red

              On the note of a 600 being as powerful as a 1k... Wow.

                You said a 600 can be made as powerful as a 1k, backpedalling will do you no good...

                  Well what I meant to say was just as fast not powerful, but still I don't see a point in a 1000 when can you leagaly use all that power that you can't do with a 600.

                    Sounds like you said it is as powerful.

                        Well you can make a 600 just as powerful as a stock 1K just add a turbo and/or NOS.

                        Ok I found the artical...http://www.motorcycle.com/shoot-outs...000-14276.html

                            That article is 7 years old. I think the tech has come a long, long way since then. Lols.

                            And no, a turbo/NOS is not a replacement for displacement. Adding a Turbo/NOS is not just bolt and go, nor will it add 60 HP out of the box. You've got a lot of learning to do, dood.

                              And for the price of a 600 plus a turbo setup or nos, you may as well buy a 1k and keep your reliability.

                                I know I know but I said the original statement so I had to defend it.
