I have not followed the sportbike scene for quite a while.....
I was inspired by the production of the BMW 1200 in line four and noticed all the hype on the horsepower and it was to be a "rice-eater" and so on, bla, bla, bla.
Well, I looked in to the hyped horsepower and found that the Susuki Hayabusa has 175 horsepower and I would suspect that the new Kawasaki ZZR1400 would take them both.
The question is, what makes the BMW sportbike superrior to these other Japanese productions bikes barring HP?
AND, where is the proof in that performance?
