A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice.

I rode an R3. Thought it was awesome already. Can't imagine twisting the throttle on this thing. Wish that was a bonnie!

I'm pretty sure the Department of Defense would classify that beastie as a Weapon of Mass Destruction!

The part that I think would aid that process..."the bike has sent the front wheel sky high at over 130mph"

Yep Siggy....Let's all hope that that little dude with the funny hair, sittin' north of the 38th Parallel, never gets his grubby little mits on THIS thing.
What a freakin' MONSTER!!!
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

i gotta wonder what 0to60 time is??? and then 60 to 100?? and the real cool thing is that, the rocket handles like a sportbike, for its size and weight it is awsome in the twisties so it has to be one of the fastest and best handeling bikes ever 
ENJOY!!!!! NEWT!!!!!

Phil,
I have no clue what "335 hp @ 6500 rpm and 302 ft/lb @ 5300 rpm (at 16psi boost)" means, but (a) it sounds dramatic and (b) the bike looks d#mn sexy!

You may need seatbelts to keep from flying off the back. Too much for me. Do not need to show off that much. I'll stick with mine.

Awesome except for the front fender. Thing looks like a beek. Needs to be tucked down.

I hear ya...wayyyy too much bike for me. It's awesome to consider a bike with that much power, but it's far more than I need or could safely use. I've been thinking of having these guys do a nitrous install for me...130 hp, but only when i really need it, like a run at the drag strip, or a quick getaway from an obnoxious VRod at a light...
