Well, I got my new bike today! =) .....and I absolutely LOVE it!
I test rode it and was totally amazed at its speed. It's acceleration is totally phenomenal! I rode it on the freeway and just a few seconds after entering the on-ramp I was already going 116. Acceleration was so high that my ass lifted off the seat and I had to grip the handle bars really tight just to keep myself on the bike! LOL. The only higher G's I've experienced would be roller-coasters. But, its just as much fun. =)
I'm actually glad I started off with a lower-end bike (Ninja 250). A 600cc sportsbike (or higher) is really too much bike for a beginner.
The downside is that now when I drive my car, it feels slower than before. =/
