Funny, I tried keeping up with iDave once. He was riding a Tuono and I was on a FULLY loaded DL1000. I crashed into the side of a mountain, lol.

That said, the DL1000 is the best all around bike I've ever had...and I hear a lot of people talk about how they actually like the 650 better. Go for it dude, its a great bike.
