Interesting ..... XS11 verses 750 Kat

[79XS11F]

I have been using the 750 Kat as my daily ride now for a week or so and must say... when I took the 11 out the other day I was very surprised to discover just how much more nimble the 11 is. Its lower center of gravity makes the 11, even with its added weight and power, handle like a toy compared to the Kat. The Kat which is about 50 pounds lighter and claiming similar HP has nothing near the same acceleration as the 11.
All in all .. the Kat is an interesting bike and a fun ride but it is nothing like the 11 at all.

I did in deed expect the Kat to be not just a sportier looking bike ... I expected it to in fact be a sportier bike. that is not the case. It does however sound very nice :-)
