my bike I don't think was 441 wet... it was 370ish dry. but there's more to size than weight... the width ect... the bike just FEELS bigger. (i've never sat on a 954 though... but I've sat on many R1's, 929's, 1000RR's, and GSXR 1000's all felt much wider and bigger than my ZZR)

and what's the point. if I don't want or need the things the I4 liter offers... why get it?

I'm not dis'n the bike... it's just not the right one for me.


if I want torque down low I'll go with a V-Twin... which is why I'm considering the 1125R.

but really I just want something that has decent range, comfortable, doesn't feel overly wide. the weight is low so it actually feels just as nimble as my ZZR if not more so.


why don't you want a busa?
