....for the fastest, nastiest and most bonkers thousand out there the 2004/05 ZX-10R is the one
Can't argue with that

I've never ridden an 04-05, although I'm sure they're just lovely bikes 
Can somebody remind me which model it was that's won in World Superbike ? ...
Only marginally more seriously (something I prefer to avoid), could someone enlighten me as to the source of the crim / gumby labels ?
Cheers,
Brian

Do not walk behind me, for I may not be leading
Do not walk in front of me, for I may not be following
Do not walk alongside me, for the path may be narrow
Just piss off and leave me alone

what about the bike (which is closer to stock than a WSBK machine) that got all the lap records in Aus SBK??? with Stauffer aboard
CRIM - originated from Pontikat??? because hang around with one long enough and you'll end up in gaol.
GUMBY- looks like a moulded piece of play-doh. very smooth, but also a bit soft

Touche' ! Although, I think ultimate potential performance is more of a yardstick than out of the box (will everybody who leaves their bike completely stock pleas put their hand up ?) , so from where I sit WSB trumps ASB
Thanks for the info, you learn something every day
