I hear ya...I would like to ride it at some point...I've never tried out ABS on a bike...or linked brakes.

Well I did ride a Goldwing but didn't test the brakes out.
I've ridden a Blackbird a few times... yuck!

I owned a ZX-11 and the Blackbird was the enemy.

I now recall the other thread but didn't see any dyno #'s posted...maybe they are in those 7 or so pages.

Regardless...nice #'s.

Yea I know, but still pretty impressive!

If guys like Smileyman had had their way, sport bike development would have stopped at the '77 Honda 750 Super Sport! Shit some guys turned down their noses when Indian produced a bike that would do 60mph. "Who needs to go that fast, anyway?"
