    1st. These videos of that engine are incredibly amazing.
    2nd. These videos of that engine are incredibly stunning.
    3rd. these videos of that engine are incredibly puzzling.
    last but not least, I have refused to take my R6 above 9K all day after watching this. I'm scared to pop a valve now. Even though I know I won't but still. ugh

    Funny, I've been thinking about this too lately. Hmmmmm....another project? First I've got to finish the R5/RD cafe project.

    Nearly 200HP?! There's a vehicle i'd be OK with having abs/dtc. I don't have that kind of talent.

    I agree. I love my KZ1000. Torque is fun.

    But what I really want is a K75s with a turbo tucked up underneath.

    sorry if this is reposted but this thread is all the search came up with.

    this bike's head cut open and run at 14K+ RPM, quite impressive!

    PS The beemer is a very nice design and should be an awesome bike
    Nah you didn't run out of power. You ran out of talent.

    I can't imagine running out of power on a 600cc sport bike. I'm more than happy ridding my old cb550 which on a good day maybe has around 50hp.

    ^^This.

    I'll also add that if more people would learn to ride on lesser bikes than a sports 600/750/1000, then we'd all be better off. Better riders, less accidents, lower insurance.

    I still want an S1000RR though ;)

    Unless you compete in motorcycle racing at a professional level, you don't "run out of power" on a 600.

    If your attitude is you aren't scared of your 600 in a straight line speed anymore you still have a lot to learn. Many people get faster bikes once they get used to the power of their own, but that's not even 1/10th of what a sport bike is about. When someone simply states to forget a 600 and go for a 1000, they always sound like a squid to me.
