He rode it as fast as the 1098, but with half the effort. Within three laps on the CBR, he was equaling the 1098. Two sessions later, he knocked off 3.5 seconds. That's a lot. The next day, he sold his 1098 and bought a CBR.
In my book, "easy to ride quickly, with less effort" is way more important than ten more horsepower, ten less pounds, or 10 more MPH.
