Is the stock seat really that hideous?

I would have hoped for something more creative than a windscreen sticker that says "Roland Sands Design."

You know what I hate... I hate Companies that buy high end vehicles as corporate acquisitions, then the only person that gets to pilot it are the CEO and CFO, yeah... I hate that

Something wrong with that bike besides the tire? I think I'm missing something.

People never cease to amaze me. Why didn't he buy a GSX-R like me?

Poor Desmosedici.

I don't see what is a shame about burning off a rear tire at a show.

People want to see that bike ridden, doing burnouts, whatever... as long as its in action. Tires are meant to be replaced anyway.

At least he didn't do what a GM guy did in one of the first new zo6's. Took it to a burnout contest and shot a belt off the tire through his quarter panel.
