Your always going to lose out on power no matter how much money you throw at it, it depends where you want to use the power. I presume you like track riding and fast road riding to be asking anyway, so ? ?
Mod out your 600 and limit your top end by alot, or buy the 1000 stock outrun your 600 and away you go, you really need to find a friend who has one and go out on some twisties to compare the bikes. See which you like better.
As for comfort, i`ve never rode a 600RR but sitting still they seem pretty well equally propportioned, you will notice a bit more weight with the 1000 to flick about but thats easily fixed if you wanted to, go with a 55 profile rear and its more agile. Not that i can`t flick it with the standard 50 profiler on.
Pity i`m in the UK i quite like the idea of a play, [:'(]

What rear tyre size did you use to get the Blade turning quicker?? Are you using Pirelli Diablo Corsas? 190/55?

You may get more hp out of your bike, but never the torque of the 1k, and that sounds to me like what you're looking for. Don't waste your money on the full exhaust system for the 1k either, you will move the power up even higher in the rpm range. Buy the 1k now while winter prices are in effect, then sell yours come spring, or better yet, get your lady on her own bike, that will free up tons of power for you!
