Thats not bad...but I expected both numbers to be higher.

Maybe the RC isn't on my list anymore.

I saw a dyno sheet for a Buell 1125R....141hp and 80 ft lbs of torque. Thats what the fuck I'm talking about.

Damn right I would. I wish the Japs would keep these around. The TL's. The RC's. A V4 jap bike would kill.

Speaking of V4's....anyone seen the new V4 Aprilia?

We've had a V4 Jap bike for awhile. The Honda VFR. Granted it's not the most powerfull, but it is a V4 none the less. Hopefully Honda updates it for 09. The VFR is actually a blast to ride.

Yeah...they should put that engine in a true sportbike package. That would be awesome.

Rumor on the street says Honda will come out with a VFR1000 that leans more toward SS than ST.

Mine should change this season
