Honestly, not alot. But then again, I did fit them on day 2 of riding the bike, so i dont have a lot of comparison :oops:

Im sure a non amateur would feel the difference, but I cant tell.
It is however leaving a nice mark on the left knee of my suit tho ffs :p

Lovely bike there Ben. Loved the look of my black ninja, just something menacing about them in black. Never had a go on the 636, hear they had more torque than the 599, which would be nice.
