So this is what you were talking about, Rider? SWEET. Are you still basking in your new bike smell?

Yep the more I ride the more I love it and I am grinning ear to ear every time I get on it.

Sportrider has a nice write up this month on the 08' 750! Their dyno ran a conservative 123.1 hp and 53.9 ftlbs torque. They pointed out that this was a lower figure from the 07 model but could not account for the new ram air changes in top end actual hp. They did say mid range was vastly improved and it does appear to have a very nice torque graph with lots of overrev.

Big news is, as proposed it would qualify for the new (and terribly written) 2009 AMA/DMG Daytona Superbike class!!!! Looks like the 750 will come back like gangbusters!

I just read that article. Nice write up and the slight drop in top end power didn't hurt because of the improved torque down low.
