have you ridden 600 and a 1000? ride both before you buy and see what you feel is enough power. personaly i went 600 because is ridicuoulsly fast and has way more than enough power for me , its also a much lighter bike than the 1000 wich is good for me seeings i only weigh 65 odd kg. that aside i realy cant justify the extra fuel usage , tire /chain/sproket wear that a 1000 would need when the 600 is heaps.
like i said though try them both , if the 1000 is to heavy / powerful for your likeing and the 600 dosent cut it you could always go a 750.
Wait you came from a 250 to 600 and you wanted more power? Torque I can understand but power? Admittedly I'm no Rossi, but there's only two or three sections of road where I feel the need for more power than my little SV can give.
The reason most people buy thous is the torque, you can come into a corner in the wrong the gear and just power out. The jump for a 250 to a 1000cc is pretty big and about half the people I know that have done it either binned it badly or got rid of the 1000.
Give a daytona 675, and a gsxr750 a try before you decide on the 1000cc.
