I wish the magazines would start busting on the manufactures about their bullshit specs. These bikes are precision machines but the manufacture feels the need to stroke the specs. For years the speedo's have been way off. I remember the Hurricane 1000's had every squid thinking they had a 200mph bike back in the early 90's. That speedo was 12 percent off on the top end. Imagine HONDA known for their precision releasing a bike with that kind of error. Now all the tachs are off except honda (according to the mags) and Kawi says our bikes have a dry weight of 364 but the mags say a dry weight of 399. If they're gonna lie to us about speed, redline, weight, what's next?
