I think it makes me want one more... go for a belt instead of a chain and you'd cut that noise in half.

I don't know what they did to get it set up for the Mojave Mile, but 190 is a nice pass for regular bikes. I'm impressed. Who cares about the friggin noise? All bikes make ridiculous noises at 190.

Acceleration doesn't look bad....but I wonder about braking....how long it would take to get used to riding it into a corner without some kind of compression braking?

There are ways to imitate engine braking with the electronics...
