I'll see you a Jeremy McWilliams and raise you a Danny Eslick. This Jeremy McWilliams? Jeremy McWilliams' Profile The best he's done is one win, six podiums, and 3 polls. Over 20 YEARS. Danny got 6 wins, 10 podiums, and 1 poll, IN ONE SEASON. On a "street bike" even. |

I'm asking what specific parts list is included on an off the floor 600/1000cc "race bike" that is not included on an 1125R "street only bike". a 600 or 1000 cc engine. When you try to build a marketing campain around a 1125cc bike that is competitive with the other manufaturer's 600cc bike, it just doesn't resonate with the average consumer. Had they have gone the route of saying the 1125 was the best streetbike you could buy or built a Buell with a 600cc engine and beat the competition, and then talked about being the best, that might have worked a bit better. |

Too bad physics get in the way. Hope Aprilia gets their V4 dialed in and goat humps the IL4s. The Big Four have the sheeple well conditioned. |

I'll see you a Jeremy McWilliams and raise you a Danny Eslick You are shameless Fat - you will throw anybody under the bus in your attempt to be right! Your half hearted effort on belittling Jeremy failed. I'm sure I could dig through the archives and find you singing his praises! I have nothing but respect and admiration for Danny and cheered him on all season, but he has not ridden both bikes. So your logic fails - mine prevails. |

What logic? You mentioned the end all be all racer of note. I was just pointing out that he is an also ran. Other than the subjective, you haven't been able to supply what makes one bike a "real race bike" and what makes one "street bike only". |

"street bike only". not my words and you know it. You mentioned the end all be all racer of note. I was just pointing out that he is an also ran. Not my point and not my words - and you know it. Sorry Fat, but I'm not interested in rehashing point after point with you.

From motorcycle busisness plan story to when you look to a car maker from India. Bajaj primarily makes scooters and small motorcycles. If they've broken into the car market, its a recent development. |

The 3 wheeler taxis, trucks and everything else with more than 2 wheels are cars to those guys. This is hilarious... their biggest bike. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RwCFrwhYCg |

A 'real' race bike is any bike one decides to race in a sanctioned event. |
