Rode it and loved it. Way more power than a H.O. almost as much as a 700 but seemed more manageable. It revved quicker than the 700, and just seemed like a better balance. It is as heavy as a 700 but didn't feel like it. The test track had some sticky mud turns which were hard to manuever, it was hard to get the rear wheels to break loose on a turn on everything I rode, so everything was pushing in the turns, including the 600, but I think this was more a matter of the knarly tires sticking to the sticky mud. I think the 600 is going to be a huge hit. It has plenty of power for most people, I think the H.O. is anemic.
