R6 - quicker than i thought

Swapped bikes with a friend last night who had a newish R6, maybe 2 years
old. First impressions - physically tiny! At 6'2" It really felt small to
sit on, and smaller when crouched down, but managed to get on. Second
impression - my god it was fast! Previous fastest bike i had ever owned was
a blackbird, and cant really compare them side by side, but this is by a
large margin the quickest 600 i have ever been on, and miles faster than my
CBR1000F. I thought the guy was joking about the top speed until i wound it
out. Not slow!
