        Still does 0-60 in under 3 seconds, for reference my GSXS-1000 is about 200lbs lighter and is a tiny bit slower!

          Almost 180 hp is still A LOT for its weight.

        Probably even heavier, depending on your diet.

          They’re not that much louder than your average Harley tbf, at least here in Europe; they probably have to adhere to noise emission standards over here.

            But Harleys are already really fucking loud. Legal road vehicles without specialized function shouldn’t be that loud IMO.

              I agree, although I’m one of those annoying people that likes big, loud, wide motorcycles; Harleys especially (apart from those shitty touring models with the built-in radios).

                Sure I get it, making noise tends to be fun when you’re the noisemaker - personally I like loud music and I’m not the kind of person who goes to sleep early. But it’s the same as with anything else, you need to be considerate of other people.

                  No, I fully agree with you. I both live near a main road and in a small village full of inconsiderate people that listen to loud music all night long. I know how annoying that is.

                  I love music and like to listen to it rather loudly but I tend to use headphones after 8 PM for that exact reason.

              Harley is shit quality though, so often it doesn’t make any noise at all.

      Wow that thing is fucking awesome. I’ve never seen a bike like that. I wouldn’t trust myself on it. I’m not a rider anyway.

        I would love to ride one to try it but considering it’s no better on gas than my car I wouldn’t want to own it!
