I read some idiots comments yesterday on the hellforleather website. They we're ignorantly bashing the bike but I have a feeling when a tester comes out it will have some serious challenge for the BMW and Aprilia, not the the race teams have enough talent to make it show.
Supposed to be a true screamer with good throttle/tire connection. A total dream if they can pull it off...

Maybe so...They had no idea of anything beyond dyno graphs. 'More peak please'
The whole point is the reduction of the peaks and valleys so that there is a consistent and smooth application of power, duh...If you have to spin it higher to get there so be it. Yamaha just caved and threw in a cross plane crank and variable intakes to solve the riddle even at a cost of peak numbers, Kawi thinks a conventional crank spinning faster will do the same while bettering the peak numbers higher in the rpm band...
