These bikes have the coolest sound to them... it's like a Jetsons mobile hum rather than a typical exhaust.

This is from the demo at Firebird Raceway in Phoenix. We did a walk around during our morning tech of the bikes. This is all of them fired up. I just wish someone would have turned off the radio on the one so we had the sound of just the bikes...

I guess I would say that its handling abilities are pretty much on par with any late 90s early 2000s sport bike.

That's pretty accurate. It's not a new 600 or liter bike, but it's got some speed and handling.
