I love my 620 on track, I can use all of it (most of the time... ouch) I haven't taken the thou' out on track but can't see me being capable of fully using what it has on offer. The less power you have the more you will learn about corner speed.

I have a 750ss for trackdays only got to use it once since i got it but i am very happy with the bike.
took it to brands full gp and loved it,i was faster after 1 day on the ss than on the 900 monster after 6 trackdays.(also ran in normal road set up) looking forward to doing more next year after some mods.(94 carb model)
