Good interview.

It's not like Barney is going to come out and say, "The Buell is crap, I wish I was on a Honda" or anything, so I don't know how much is truth and how much is bias for who's paying his salary.

The answer will be revealed in March. : )

I thought the big advantage in the perimeter brake was that it allowed them to lighten the wheel, not necessarily a 1:1 savings in the weight of the brake system.
