WHAT A DOG, smooth? sheesh, thought my fillings were going to fall out, power, where?

ok, seriously on topic.

I found the 1600 to be a much bigger bike in its fit and feel over my 1500. The bars are wider, I had to reach further for the foot controls and I didn't think I was sitting all that much lower. I do have short stubby legs.

the power was there obviously and to me it seemed to be a smoother acceleration over my 1500 but in my opinion my 1500 pulled harder in 2nd and 3rd, no disrepsect there deron.

I did sense that there was more top end on the 1600 over my 1500 but my quick run down the road and back couldn't verify that.

how was that big guy?
