hi all today i went and sat on the 675, i was amazed that i fit my 6,3 frame on the bike lol, i think this bike is an awsome machine and the price is great also
my knee fit right into the parts of the tank that seem to be ment for that so im happy with that
the thing is, how would this bike be for a beginner rider?
and besids looks hows the bike perform?

I own a 2006 675 and i love it. It is the first bike that i have ever owned. I have riden suzukis to kawasakia and hondas and am very happy with the choice that i made with purchasing my bike. I think you will be happy if you go with that bike unless you already have.

I've been eyeballing the 675 Street Triple. I love the Street Fighter look. Under full throttle, does the 675 pull the front tire's off the ground?

Under full throttle I haven't had it come up. But when I am driving down the road with out any clutch you can get the wheel off the ground. I have actually had an easier time bring the wheel of the ground on this bike than I did a kawi or Honda. Just seems easier. I have mine set up as a street fighter look. I took the fairings off the side. Put after market headlights upfront and took the back fairings off as well (where the rear seat was) . It looks like it has been stretched. The last thing on the body is the seat. Nothing behind me at all. I will try to post a pic later so you can see.

every modern middleweight will power wheelie if you want it to.

I've regeared mine and added some power mods, the bike tries to power wheelie in 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear. it's a little insane.
