I like it, although mine is an '03, afraid there isn't much in common with the '10. My gripes are mostly the marshmallow frame, which the '10 has probably fixed. However I like the engine of the '03, gives a nice kick around 7k rpm, I think the '10 trades that for more grunt. Fun bike all around, for sure.

That your living room? I've always wanted to park my bike inside like a piece of rideable art.

Anyway, floor to ceiling windows and a bike inside is one of my dreams.
Also, the 675 is a hell of a bike. I think we need more 'cheater' or tweener bikes in the world. Liter bikes are almost pointless these days, even on the track outside of the top riders.

It's not a cheater, it's a triple. The same way 750 twins race against 600 fours; the 675 splits the difference. The performance is right in line with the 600s. They're all "middleweights".
