It appears to be designed for Suzuki Hayabusa  ;)

I just scored a new one shipped for $24 and some change :)

It was on Amazon not sure why or how, but they have not canceled the order yet...figured for that price I would roll the dice and see if I could really get it for that price.

It was the same seller that I got a brand new K&N for my roadstar for 3 dollars :)

I would imagine the speed rating is fine.  How about the load rating?

If I understand bridgestone's rating correctly it would be 805lbs

So far so good!!! item is being prepared for shipping and I have yet to get word of a mis-print on price. However about an hour after I ordered it, the price was back up to it normal 161.95....keeping my fingers crossed the lighting might just strike again.
