Regardless of Little Pickle's views, you and I were clearly not on the same page. I agree arguing both sides of a view is beneficial, it's one of the first challenges you are given in a debate class, but I don't agree there's a benefit to making stupid arguments because "this is the internet!".  |
but again... what you quoted has merit... the fact is; 600's can carry more corner speed than a 1200; straight line the 12r is gonna be more planted than a 600 due to weight... and the brakes aren't gonna be as touchy; and the 12 of yesteryear isn't as, as he put it... high strung, tuned for every last bit of hp or torque.
I don't know if i'd say that the 12r is better... but I don't believe it's as black and white as you think.
and as I said before... until lately... we had quite a few discussions on this forum about very touchy subjects... but as most of us are adults and know each other we were able to have civil discussions. in those settings playing devils advocate is just fine... actually look at the "Adspace for No God" thread... it's what I'd been doing in 90% of my posts... not to just piss in anyone's Wheaties... but to get the discussion passed the 'you're wrong, I'm right' stage.
