Pretty standard I guess, buncha armchair engineers and Monday morning MotoGP stars. I could give two shits and a fuck about trivial shit like how someone else decides to build their bikes... Does it work? Is it fun? Does it do what I want it to do and look how I want it to look? Yes? Then it's good. All the other shit is just chest pounding and circle jerking...

They're not going to put all that money into the bike and carb it. Plus aren't carbs are a no no now on new production bikes?

You do realize that direct injection is different from typical fuel injection? Carbs are not the only other option and regular fuel injection would make more sense to me. Either way, I'm not too enamored with what I've seen so far. Factor in the likely price range and the induction system will be irrelevant.

Put 51K miles on an SV with carbs, never had an issue with them.

I've honestly had more problems with FI systems. Tons of stumbling and jerking unless you get it dyno tuned.

As for a sport tourer, Triumph ST for me please.

Ha. I was watching vids on this just a few minutes ago. I want to see the finish product.

Sounds mean as hell.

OSP, I think there's a difference between discussing shit, and declaring something to BE shit based on xyz characteristic. I hear ya though, and it's kinda like when it always makes me when a new bike hits the net/rags & 90% of what you hear is "OMFG look at that hideous exhaust".

At the end of the day, how a street-bike "works" boils down to whether it stirs the soul & puts a smile on the face of the rider, not whether it looks good on a spec. sheet.

I just don't see what's wrong with asking questions or having an opinion?

2/3 of that is true...

The one that's not true is that he's faster than most. He totally never had sex before he met me
