Nice Sweet Meat posted:To the guy that posted all the HP/Torque stuff: who cares? Motorcycles in this country have gone nuts. Every year the displacements get bigger, and for what? Track days? What if you don't care about that poo poo and don't want a drat car engine on your bike? Maybe it's because we're so fat and our dicks are being subsumed by our gunts so we feel the need to compensate with these monsters. The bonny is a gentlemans bike, if you get it, you will like it. Yeah the acceleration is linear, but that's a good thing. My last bike was a 07 Ninja 500, and the jerky torque got me in trouble more often than not. I was glad when it got totalled. Exhibit A: British bike in its natural state; being towed somewhere while a grumpy dude smokes about it.

599's are boring according to everyone I've known who owned then sold one. Honda precision leading straight to complete predictability and boredom. Plus there's the Honda tax on top of all that. You can sacrifice the boring without sacrificing the reliability with things like the Bandit 1200, zrx, sv, z1k, etc.

The versys has taught me that some p-twins own, I used to universally hate them, but some are done right.

So I probably sound like a shill at this point, but I'm 6'3" and a bit less than you and the Versys is the most comfortable bike I've ridden, even over the drz and bandit 1200 which are known as good "big dude" bikes.
