i cant remember if it was sport rider or motorcyclist that did the review, but there was a middleweight shootout between the 600rr, gsxr, zx6, and the daytona. daytona was cheaper than all, more power, same torque, but peaked at lower rpm, similar handling/weight. and imo better looks and sound. the verdict that was given to the daytona was that it is in a class of it's own. top that off with the fact that there isn't one on every corner like the aforementioned
japanese bikes, andit's an awesome choice.

 

I'd love to have one of those. Get it if you've got the chance. On my local craigslist they seem to be more expensive than japanese bikes, out of my price range when I was shopping.
