Yes. Race replicas are very uncomfortable for most people if you are not actively riding them.
I guess some people buy them to just show them off on forums, but obviously lather bought it to enjoy the twisties. I couldn't tell his location from his post, so I was wondering if he lived in IL or FL where curves are few and far between and twisties are non-existant. LOL!
That is no replica, and not all of us are too old to be "somewhat short term" comfy on a race bike.
I agree that would be such a waste for states cursed with too many straight roads, and rolling the throttle too hard on that bad boy will put a rider on their butt!!!
