I'm watching this one from the sidelines, pulling for both teams. It seems to me that competition improves the breed best of all on the showroom floor, with Motorcycles. These things are so over the top though that it's becoming a "Numbers War", interesting, kinda.



Thing is, for me, these days, these bikes have performance beyond my street duty needs, or wants. Don't get me wrong, a biannual buzz on a Bud's bullet bike is a blast but I don't need to own it.



Part of it is that I know myself, if I had one of those things it would Lead to trouble. I would NEVER be passed, without my best fight anyway's. My ride now gets creamed by well ridden Modern 600 Supersports but it's plenty fast enough to put a smile on my face. I only got one horse these days but she's a good one.



For me about 130HP to the ground seems like it would be plenty not that less can't be perfect for a given application. Tune it for as much Torque and as linear of a throttle response possible, make it compact and light.



I know, the Daytona 955i has the perfect high-performance Street Motorcycle engine.

Of course not. Those things will hardly move until you add about 5K worth of aftermarket to them.

Sorry bout that, damn hard to get good data about something that as far as I know is just somebody's dream/wish. Please feel free to enlighten us.

I don't know, with inflation and all one might need at least 110HP to have any fun.

I wouldn't dream of it, unless bored of course. Our "National Tammany Hall" is providing a plethora of entertainment lately.



That was just a softball lob, I'll see your ten and raise you fifty!
