hatchback

Having added an M600 to my stable, (i.e. slightly older high mileage and much abused ZZR600), I have to wonder how you manage to ride one in a city with such narrow roads? The turning circle is monstrous, more akin to a barge than a bike. I was caught out whilst trying to repeat a fairly standard u-turn outside my house which the Kwak manages without a murmur; I ended up in a bush that knocked off the front indicator. Due to some fettling issues I was struggling to keep the engine running but I guess it goes down as, operator error!!
I deliberately went for the smallest engine because I can go plenty fast enough on big roads on the ZZR, with luggage and everything. The M600 is just for the twisties (and the awesome noise that definitely compares well with my Norton Commando's reverse cone megas).
