In my opinion...the Agusta is a very reliable bike. I've had the opportunity to ride an Agusta 750 S on the track at Sears Point. Those things have the power and the manuverability to totally rise to the top of the competition...depending on the rider. Myself (by no means) am a pro racer, but for someone with average skill, it performes like a Ferrari. Plenty of power on out of the corners, and into the straights....and as for handeling...GEESH!!! The rear tire broke a few times coming out of the corners, but it was in no way uncontrollable.
My biggest argument with people saying "I should buy a 1000 or a liter bike so I can be FAST...totally isn't true. If you look at track times, the 600-750 class is actually making BETTER times than the larger bikes such as the R1, GSXR 1000, ZX-10, 1000RR, and most liter bikes. That to me just means that when someone wants a larger cc bike for the street, they're just wanting to do "power wheelies" and go fast in a straight line. When you can do just as good on a smaller bike that's lighter, more manuverable, and if you know what you're doing....just about any stunt you can think of.
Like I said...I'm just being stupid and giving my opinion. I already know I'm gonna get flamed for saying a 600-750 is just as good as a larger bike, but sometimes the truth hurts. By the way..I ride a 2003 600RR and I have no problems keeping up with friends on their SVS 1000's, Busas, R1's etc......actually, I'm always waiting for them..... ;)
