yell it from the handlebars brother...ditto all that as I've owned 24 bikes so far......oh and not one was a Harley. Why I notice is the new bike- go fast attitude of the article's intention. New is bad and NEW is too fast
so it says but I am reminded and agree of a piece in MOTORCYCLIST by the great Mitch Boehm back in the day when the Honda CBR 6oo was in her 2nd generation. Mitch reminded that while test riding the bike and marveling her
power to speed he said " hell an old Honda Hurricane is
still more bike than 98% of all riders can handle."

It ain't the power of the bullet,it's the brains of the shooter.

Agree 100%. There are very very few (Sport) bikes on the road today that can be used to their full potential by anyone (on the street. Certainly not by this middle aged beer bellied rider.

Good one!

I think this case is one of (paraphrasing Tom Clancy) too much power under the tank and not enough brains behind the handlebars.
