..and it reconfigured how I think about acceleration and speed. It's not just how incredibly quick the thing is, or how it accelerates you down the road with an endless tidal wave of torque, or how composed it stays during this blistering acceleration...it's how smoothly and quietly it does all these things. No drama, no noise, no screaming engine note drawing attention to your speed, no maintenance and no hint of vibration or roughness.
It was, in a word, incredible.
I've owned and ridden a lot of bikes, some very fast bikes, and nothing, i mean nothing, goes like this thing. I can't imagine anyone with an extra twenty grand lying around test riding one of these and not buying it, it was that good. The throttle is like your own personal hurricane generator. A little twist and a few seconds later, your entire torso and head are pressing against 110 mph winds. And wind is all you hear.
It also made me realize something else; gasoline is going extinct.
