That is the *best* description I have yet heard about the mighty 12. I think you have hit the nail right on the head. 170hp is not something that a young'un should really trifle with.....

no, but a certain rebuilt ZXR750 in Sydney was *almost* level-pegging the sports-tourer out of Turn 12 at the Creek recently

Bloody green bikes !!!!
