I suspect while the power to weight ratio is impressive, real world drivability and handling are sacrificed. probably compleatly, unless it is truly a track only drag bike. Does anyone remember the 2 stroke 500 cc moto gp's that were pumping out nearly 200 peak hp?, they weighed in the low three's and theatened to kill their riders every second of the race! it's an interesting concept but makes less sense than a tz 750 with nitrous. As for the "chick bike" I feel emasculated enough any time I rent an automatic econo box to never want the experience to contaminate my motorcycle.
I think I will keep my speed triple with all its pesky gears it's messy chain and it's 32 in seat height, it all leads up to that chalky taste in your mouth when you wonder just how far past center you really just were. for me while being a small part of my motorcycling experience it is definitly a part, even pulling up to a stop knowing that only one foot will reach the ground due to "ahem" limited clearence in my inherited body style, just adds to the exitement
Here is a random thought, learn to ride!!!!!, take the msf course, as a graduate I firmly believe they could teach an narcaleptic poodle to ride a bike! in fact as someone with experience it was agonizing how slow the pace was.
I supose the bike will come with a cell phone holder as well.
Well f it, as long as what I like is offered I supose I can't begrudge anyone for their taste.
When the market fully steralizes the motorcycling experience with automatics, training wheels, airbags, antilocks, traction control, warning radar, onstar and the death of my beloved internal combustion engine, you will find me building a nitrous equiped tz750, I may go out in a blaze of hydrocarbons and enough decibels to wake the dead but at least I can shift when I god damn well feel like it!
Oh and last but not least if it was sugested that my gender required things like low seats and automatics and in general a dumbed down version of motorcycle operation I would be offended! flame out
