  1. See now, if that guy had been slowed down by receipt of a "hey I think you were going fast" speeding ticket, he would not have wrecked his car.

    Oh wait ... um, yeah, it is possible he was ran off the road by a female, make-up applying, phone chatting, texting cager slightly distracted by the miniskirt that wouldnt stay put, LOL

  2. Low mileage (13,449 miles) bike in very good condition. New tires and a tune up have it ready for the street. A few scratches (female owned).

    No leaks and no smoke. Aftermarket full exhaust. Only items missing are the original tool pouch and the front turn signals.

    Cleveland, Ohio

  3. The fact is that different tracks play to the strengths of different vehicles.

    Excellent point.

    The following is a quote from "TOP GEAR" UK...

    "So if the bike is better on the straights because of its quicker acceleration and the car is better in corners because of its superior mechanical grip and aerodynamics, does that mean it comes down to the track layout?"

  4. Sure, you are right in certain regards, but understand that for under $12k, we can get a machine that takes a car that costs 10x that do beat... And even at that, not many can pull it off...

    This case? Sure. But one, the cost is substantial. Cage lovers hate the idea that we can buy such performance for such little cost...

    Ok, previous question answered ... "zero cars" I'm not currently driving a CTSV (which I can afford, and would most likely choose).

    The bike defender almost always throws the money card out ... Sure I agree that $12K buys a huge performance vehicle ... but why the need to dodge the question with a money issue. My statement was based on contact patch only, 4 vs. 2.

    If you want to involve money in the equation, lets say you take a base performance car vs. a base performance bike ... and then spend a normal amount of cash to upgrade them. Compare those vehicles and what is there?

    Say, a Dodge Charger vs. a Yamaha R6S.

    With the normal vehicles upgraded and compared, I'd agree the R6S would most likely perform better.

    Without the money equation, allowing ultimate engineering and technology, I'm betting on 4 wheels to reign supreme.

  5. This may be limited to Mid-Ohio School (PTR) participants, family, friends?

    From the MO page ...

    KTM, the official motorcycle of The Mid-Ohio School, will be providing sportbike riders with several unique opportunities throughout the year. During the first two PTR dates this weekend, the KTM Ride_Orange Street Demo Rig will roll into the paddock providing PTR participants and their families and friends the chance to ride one of several models including the 690 SMC, 690 Duke, 690 Enduro, 950 Enduro, 990 ADV, 990 SMT, 990 SMR and 990 Super Duke. KTM will have demo times available from 1 p.m. – 6 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. on Sunday. Spots will be filled first-come, first-serve, and riders must be 25 years old and present a valid motorcycle license.
