Pretty much... I was reading an article in one of my Canuck bike magazines, and they claimed it was going to be the most powerful production bike ever, and by a very large margin

Not 100, but the Busa had 160ish, and in this, they're talking about 240+. There's a link to the article on it in the street bikes forum.

Let me give you an example of what so much power is like on a daily basis.
Having a very fast vehicle is like having a huge dick. When you are racing it is all great and happy. But during your daily routine in life, it just gets in the way.

Pretty much, which is why I'd be content with a Buell Firebolt... More relaxed riding position, more low end grunt to get moving. Easier to ride than an R1, and much less common(at least where I live)
Then again, the most powerful bike I've ever been on was an R6 that a friend of a friend owned, and an R1 is the same bike with a bigger engine...

Well, my Dad and I share an old 80's Kawasaki 550. It's a pretty standard Japanese motorcycle. Too revvy to be a cruiser, too uncomfortable to be a tourer, too laid back to be a sport bike, it's just a UJB (ubiquitous Japanese bike). It does have great pick-up though. And is a blast to ride.
But, god and/or satan willing, someday I will park a 70's Triumph or BSA/Norton sport bike next to Layla. I need a matched set!:angel: Though I would settle for one of those drop dead gorgeous all-conquering Ducati 996R's. How many wins did Troy Bayliss have this year on one of those? What I'm trying to say, though, is that a UJB is good for daily use. They can rise to just about whatever demand you ask of them, and require less maintenance than most cars.
