looks to me like he's showing out for the camera, trying to lean too much. They arent going that fast, really.

Shame the camera isnt pointed at the Guzzi. The MGS-01 was the best looking bike theyve ever made:

Yeah it looks good. I donŽt get overexcited about it as I think they should make a new engine (4v water cooled?) for it though. The bike looks like it has 200 bhp but instead is a slow snail. I met a guy at Oschersleben who had one. Saw him ride it, so yeah, not really exciting.

So since when is it more important to drag your knee on the ground than ride a smooth safe line through a corner? That dude's just asking for it, and he jerks around more than a dog shitting a peach seed...

One thing Ive learned is that a bike need not make a lot of power to be a lot of fun.

Very true, it just strikes you badly when you can smoke that thing with a 2000 R6 which cost 1/10 of the MGS at the racetrack. This comes from someone who has rediscovered the slowliness of riding with the Hypermotard after years of Superbikes

there was a zx7 rider that i would run into now and then on my hawk gt.
he couldnt stand being shown up in the twisties.
it got to the point he would pull over when he saw me!

Rumours indicate that MG is working on a large capacity liquid-cooled engine for 2013 .
