Gettin on with the TA
Well I've had this 2 weeks
 And so far its better than my 650 Alp, far better than my GSA, and on a par with the XT660, although smoother      A nice bit of Wales finest slag   It does the off road so well albeit slower than the XR, the Humm should be fun

Re: Gettin on with the TA
Silly question time - in what way is your 600 better than your previous 650??
Is it in any way quantifiable? Or is it just a feeling and nothing in particular that you can put your finger on? Just curious.

Its better than the 650 for me ,off road it feels easier, maybe because its not worth so much  and it doesnt feel so heavy up front. It has been a while since I rode the 650 but the 600 feels just as quick, but either way its great on a v twin again

I loved my 600, they are surprislingly good off-road as long as you don't go too mad I'd have another anyday, great 'all-round' bike.
