I'm just saying... I know what is fast. I've drove fast cars. Your logic is flawed. Just because I don't own one of those current "fast" things, that I don't know what fast is anymore? That just isn't so.

It ain't fast by any standard but aircooled bikes' performances.

Shit, you may have ridden a Nightrod but I owned a Street Rod. That mutha got outranned by my oversized dirtbike which gave up 20-HP on it.

You know, for me... a motorcycle doesn't have to be the fastest, best handling machine in the world for me to have fun on it... I guess I'm one of the rare ones on this board who cannot utilize any supersport to it's fullest capabilities.

No, it doesn't, and I don't dispute that at all. Now and then I still enjoy taking the Beemer out and let it thud around at 6000-RPM. But claiming that the V-Rod is fast...
