I don't think so. At 85mph - I'm doing roughly 4,000.

Mark.

You guys are goddamn idiots! Who is going to ride these bikes on the track anyway? NOBODY, that's who. Test them on the street, and give me pretty pictures. Oh yeah, where's that dude Blip nowadays anyway? At least some of the tests made sense then. Respond or I'll cut your balls off!

Good review. I am curious how it is that "naked bike" is defined. Seems like the FZ is not a true naked but it's always included in comparos. My two cents is that "naked bike" is just another phrase for moderately priced bike. If you throw that out there, then add in my bike request for the Sprint RS to be included as well. It has the same amount of body work as the FZ. Good luck lining up all 170-something bikes for your next comparo! Ha.

One other thought. (They come sparingly!) I would love to see a 2004 version of this comparo spoting the Monster R, the MV Brutale, Tuono and the same cast of characters. I have heard from the guys at my local dealership selling Ducs and Triumphs as well, that the Brutale for its 750 cc engine is a true contender. (Of course at 13+k it needs to be.) It is definitely beautiful.
