Who cares about top speed anyway?

As a side note.... in NZ they have an event once a year called "The battle of the twins" its a street race that allows any cc rating Twin cylinder bike to enter.... When I was last in NZ a TLR had won it 3 years in a row against RSV's, SP1's and Ducatis....

you wont really find much more suitable than the 9R


unless you mean you want something with more top end?

in that case... a busa? the 12 isnt quite as comfy...

Nar thats crap to, If you let the bolts in the rotary damper become loose they crack then and if you do really bad wheelies with heavy landings time after time then you might crack the headstock.

Yeah they did sound great to
