Since they're going to relist motor configurations more than once, at least throw a SINGLE cylinder in there...


What stroke/sound is personal preference...

To say it is a moving experience is an understatement. I took a video a while back of it, but it totally doesn't do it justice. :/
Yes yes, you and your fancy golden unicorn exhaust system.
I liked the rumble of my M4's, thanks very much.

I have to agree, TLRs are great. I've never heard one with the magical Yoshi system, but even simple Blue Flame slip-ons sounded amazing. Much more raw and with more "impact" than the RCs I've heard with exhausts. Some of the recent Ducati 1098s and 1198s I've heard with exhausts are similar.

The first time I realized I had to start paying attention to bikes was after being behind an old Duc 851 (back when they were new) with an exhaust at a light. I still remember the admiring "What the hell is that!?" feeling I got from hearing it.

I thought my tls with yoshi slip ons sounded awesome but have heard a few rc's and TL's with full system that sounded awesome.

Yes. I think it was R1 with Akra.

I think I have watched that zx-rr screamer video like a million times. I used to be a Kawasaki GP fan

Never heard that Aprilia Cube before. Thing sounds good.
