Oh..
Still, can't see the point of 200hp on a road bike either for that matter

But did I not hear you say at the weekend that the reason you no longer have it was because it was toooooo fast?

It's not a bike I'd own (even if I could afford it!), but it's good to see some big strides being made in the performance side of things.
I can’t wait to see some videos of it tearing around a track, preferably with a MotoGP rider on it.

Yep - might re kindle my interest in Moto GP if we can get more manufacturers involved again

It's impressive and I love the engineering involved.
I'd be more impressed seeing the same trick performed on a 500cc. Say 100 hp and a nice fat torque curve. A much more useful tool.
