Anyone recommend a CB1300

[Flipatron]

I used to ride a blade and just loved the power, I then upgraded to a CBR1000RR but it killed my back. Swapped this for a 600 Hornet but I'm just finding it to slow. I thought my next bike would be a ZX10R but I've been told the riding position is the same as the Honda.

The question is, is the CB1300 any good. I want a comfy riding position but the instant power of a Fireblade. Anyone ride one?

I ride one, now two years into ownership and still love it.

It's not a blade but the real world performance is brilliant, comfortable riding position, tons of torque so you can almost treat it like a big twist and go scooter when overtaking traffic, accelerates well, stops well (but remember the weight in the wet), corners as well as I can, eats tyres like a blade as well.
