Yep your probably right, but i like it caus its different, as close to a 4 wheel bike as you can get and cheap for the performance. I don't want it to shop, carry kids,just pure fun. I can't think of too many cars that could show it a clean pair go heals on a twisty road. My mates M3 was totally blown away he even admitted it was fast. However a Toyota Startlet thing there was also super quick. But looked like a "Fiesta" I still prefer the "lean " bit bikes offer but is is a car to make you smile. And thats whats lives about
missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!

true, and I'm pretty sure the Starlet thing you mention was a long way from std, it's amazing what people can knock up in a shed, as far as std cars your right there's not much that would keep up on the twisties and those that could are going to be mega expensive, a pal of mine as just swapped his V10 R8 for an Aventador p700 which I'm pretty sure would do the trick if you were prepared to throw it down a country road but you'd need to be brave because it's surprising how big it is.
I've now gone all European and bought a KTM Superduke GT and Aprilia RSV1000R :D ,
Storm is now gone :cry: .
