I'm not a Honda guy, but every bit of that bike is a work of art.

I noticed Honda America isn't running the hydraulic clutch like they are over in Europe.

They were, but Canard felt he could get better starts with the cable so they ditched it if I remember correctly.

That's fair enough. I've always wondered what is the difference between the American & European bikes?

Bruce used to ride MX by the way, he got hooked on it after he was a reporter at the 78 USGP at carlsbad.

Too bad Treys mechanic didn't go into the factory electronics, the special transmission, the factory swingarm, the completely different cylinder, or the custom fuel tank.

Trying to make it appear that Treys bike is just a slightly modded stocker, I don't think anyone is buying that.

Yes, he only talked about things he could talk about. Still pretty good though. If Bruce Jenner wants to be a women and he likes women, does that make him a lesbian?

I'll bet they don't want that known, Im sure if they had their choice those KYBs would have Showa stickers on them, pretty damn sad that no one wants to use the shitty hard to adjust air fork.

Honda is thick headed just like they always have been with this stuff. KTM listened to their customers, I doubt if Honda ever will, someone in Japan is deaf with a huge ego.

Where can I buy those $3000 foot pegs? I might get a few sets.

why do you have to qualify it like that? are we that consumed with fanboy culture, especially in regards to mega corporations?

if you havn't owned, or wanted to own, a motorcycle from every major brand out there, I'd hesitate to call you an enthusiast. The love of motorcycles should trump the love of any one brand of motorcycle.

..and so it goes with riders as well. Every comment about a rider YOU like, or don't like, doesn't need to be qualified. Statements about them should stand on there own. We should all just assume that everyone else, too, understands the need for objectivity, when critiquing. Arguments would be much more enjoyable, and fruit-full.
