Daytona 600 = wanna be R6/CBR600RR/ZX600RR just a couple years late but catching up.... probably won at Isle of Man cause thats all everyone was racing... would like to ride one/race against one tho...

Well.... the new Daytona 600 was actually in the works before the newest r6/cbr600rr/zx6rr..... but then the factory had the little fire and it set them back a little...

I can honestly say too that I have ridden R6s and F4s and it feels to me that the stock Daytona 600 is faster and more agile... just my oppion. and Rup... I don't need anything more than what I have to play against you....

Actually Marty that new 600 will walk a new R6 or 600RR.
Todd rode it up to Rock River on Thursday, let me take it for a spin....earlier that day I rode a new 600RR up at Robs.... I'll tell ya honestly....That ****in bike pulls HARD...I know it will spank the R6....and i would say the RR would be about the closest to even....

That could be one of the dumbest things i have heard in a while. Every bike you mentioned was there. And the daytona won. I'll take the daytona you can take the R6. You pick the road. You won't even see the tailight.

yea your right it is hard to see the taillight whens its behind me

and..... i just based my opinion on what i have read in the magezines( which i know can be biased) ill just have to go to Team Triumph myself... hee hee hope someone gets one in town tho

Ive raced against arron in his TT and its not even close so thats why im a little skeptical in the technology leap from that to the Daytona, but i do know one thing is for sure the looks have improved dramatically so maybe so could of the speed...

the Daytona 600 is a lot faster than my bike and you just barely beat me in the 1/4 mile Marty.... get ready to have your a** handed to you by a STOCK bike....
