I dont think i have had a bike that was this much fun. Not had it long but it goes like a ravin banshee as for top end...god knows. Ive had 143 out of it so far and it was pulling like a looney...
0 - 60 in fook all time. better than my previous CBR 600 and GPZ 750 turbo. The bike is a little tamer than bthe 91 model up until around 7,500 - 8,000 but then it just picks up an goes like fook.
Im thinking of changing the sprockets soon... down on front and up on rear..... move some of that power down a bit...its a bit hard to sit at 140 + riding normally.

It has loads of space in the rear compartment (Under the seat)
One of the most comfy bikes to ride pillion.

running some BT010´s on it and they are great Really sticky... (still on standard 17") wheel. If you get a strange knocking towards 4500n - 5000 then dont worry...nearly all of them have it. Its apparently due to the engine being bored out to 918. Nothing bad will happen to the bike. Oh you will need a double bubble screen to use it "Properly" on a big road. Good bike for putting your knee down on too. Any questions feel free to email me.
