Leave them bikes alone. The 600 cc ones will even embarrass you.

Agreed. I had a Ducati 1299 roll up next to me and wanted to play. Not gonna lie it was a lot of fun.

yes 1199. I was typing fast and hit the 2.

the new 1299's are sexy though

but I can never own a bike. I would be dead in <3 months after purchase.

Right on. Back in 1993 I had a CBR900RR tuned to 120 whp. Rider and bike weighed in at about 650lbs, 5.5 lbs/hp. Yes it was quick, 0-100 in about 6 seconds. Passing on 2 lane roads, no problem. The new version of that bike now has about 150whp. An amazing thrill to ride and hard to beat in a 370z.

But I like my z better. It is a nice compromise of speed, handling and safety for a daily driver.
ped likes this.

No doubt! They're all ridiculously fast. I saw 176 on my R6 now I ride a modded '04 GSXR 1000 and it tries to rip my arms off every time I crank the throttle.
