    Ahh that got you going :-)

    509 I have here a roadtest that says although all the new 1000s are good the Suzuki is the best. "It has raised the bar"
    You can have it if you like.

    Feel better?

    YOU KNOW HOW OUR BIKES GET TO 8000 THEN GO VROOOM WELL THE K5 DIDNT ,IT WAS FAST , FASTER THAN MY K3 YET IT FELT SLOWER THE POWER DELIVERY IS THAT SMOOTH ,HANDLING IS SHARP AND THE RIDING POSITION IS MORE RELAXED ITS ACTUALLY REALLY COMFY ,BUT NOW IM GOING TO GO BACK AND RIDE THE ZX10 ITS MORE OF AN ANIMAL ,MORE OF A HEAD BANGERS BIKE JUST A BIT RAW WITHOUT BEING SLAPPY JUST HOW I LIKE IT . I REALLY THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO GET A K5 TODAY BUT THE TEST RIDE LEFT ME WITH DOUBT, THE K2 AND K3 LEFT ME WITH NO DOUBT AND I BOUGHT THEM ON THE SPOT THE K5 MADE ME GO HMMMM , I DONT LIKE HMMMM I LIKE FUCK YEAH , SO ZX10 TEST RIDE HERE I COME AGAIN, OR POSSIBLY AN R1 BUT DEFINATLY NOT A HONDA.

    you didn't actually test ride it at all did you?
    and if you DID ride it and you really think it was boring, please, praytell, explain why you're not racing F1 superbikes and kicking those incompetants like stroud and Ree's into the weeds.

    you're a fogarty fan aren't ya?
