The point I was originally trying to make is that Sprints hold their own with ANYTHING on the street. It doesn't have the top end of a Hyrabuse or the fancy runnng gear of a 999R, but "on the street" those bikes don't take advantage of the state of the art. Think about it. I leave the house at 6 or 7 am and ride all day returning at or just after sunset. With a few stops to enjoy the scerery I just knocked anywhere from 300 to 600 miles. Most of the time I'm running between 60 and 80. As low as 40 in some twisties but rarely over a 100, not because it won't do it either, just not fun for me. Nothing runs away from me for long at pace. No one leaves me in the turns, so are a bit quicker, but old tech, new tech they just aren't that much faster. Last point, tell me which bike with conventional forks doesn't dive???? How much does a set of stiffer springs cost?
