I just dont understand why those idiots would drop a brand that isnt in the red.

And I also dont know why they wont give Erik the rights and let him go elsewhere. That pisses me off the most.
They were turning profit, but they were world beaters. Sales coulda been better, thats all I'm saying. Sales can ALWAYS be better.

Cuz if they are, theres no way i'd be anywhere near comfortable on it for any length of time.

Would be in my top to choices for a track bike though (If I had a track to go to), along with another rc, which is a fairly big bike.

Have to have drewpy verify, but from my 10 min on the RC, the 1125R is far roomier and more comfortable.

so if they still wanted to make the 1125rr they still could?

It would finally give all the lawyers and doctors out there a reason to wear leather other than just for a place to put their patches
