A month or two ago he had offered to give me a pillion ride on it some time, and luckily it has a topbox (daily work bike for instructing) so I’m unlikely to fall off the back... or rather, when I do I’m taking all his stuff with me. Not had the chance yet.
He was remarking it’s been a long time since he went out just to enjoy riding, rather than as a job. We agreed once we’re on the other side of the festive season, we go for a few hours with me on a 600 and swap bikes halfway.
It's fairly instinctive with those bikes to lean over the front when you accelerate hard but they pull very hard. You'll enjoy it if you get the chance I'm sure. He's probably not going to want to see you doing some crazy speed on it I guess!
