    WTF is Winghouse?

    Perhaps you need to be introduced to Twin Peaks.

    Yea frame is small.

    Does anyone know what one of these bikes weighs in race trim?

    Been to the one in Altamonte Springs multiple times, overpriced with mediocre wait staff.

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    Last time I went to the one in Altamonte my waitress was several months pregnant wearing that itty bitty uniform. I haven't been back since.

    Never been to that one, but they aren't at the top of the list either. The Houston and Miami locations though

    World superbike says otherwise.

    Pretty sure this chassis hasn't been raced in World Superbike but please enlighten us while somehow discounting the domestic championships it won in 2017. :cool:

    Yeah, yeah, look at all the bracing on the frame around the swing arm pivot point

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    Yup. Same for the BSB Honda. Welded in the same area.

    I guess Rea finishing first in testing doesn't mean anything.... also want to beat on who wins the championship this year? Even with the bogus rev rule....

    The team that has invested the more money. And that includes paying for a 1st class rider.

    WSBK is not an indication of how good a stock bike is. WSTK on the other hand...

    So for those in the know, what does bracing in that particular area do? Because I believe the kawi has it too

    yes it does have it. I reckon because of the longer and/or stiffer swingarm on top of the increased rwhp

    Love it! And it has full fairings. Not that ugly half belly like the Yamaha.

    I don't like the black side panels . either way if I was buying a new literbike most probably this is the one I'd get. If I wanted something bigger then the new panigale V4 is in a class of its own ;)
