that’s not really a fair assessment though...

we are all so zucked.....  butt zucked even!

with all this talk of tariffs... let’s just take a second to recognize that every attempt by american politicians to reduce foreign competitiveness has resulted in better foreign products.

reverse: this is why GM needed to lay off workers and shut down plants... everyone who is up at arms about this should remember what happened just a short decade ago when gm DIDN’T bother to read the writing that was on the wall...

1st: too bad president shit-for-brains won’t listen to experts since he has a very large a-brain and always knows better than people who dedicate their lives to being subject matter experts....

my fz09 (a bike that is renown for it’s ridiculous torque) puts out about 65ftlbs, 180 is INSANE!

yo my fz09 has 65lbft of torque and it’s a fucking rocket off the line, i cannot imagine what a bike with 3x the torque would feel like

harley has a 1000% better shot of selling me one of those than a live wire... unless the msrp on that scooter is 13k, which honestly seems like a really good way to sabotage yourself (aka harley davisons business model)

i’m being sarcastic... should have included the /s

...and it’s not like the vice fucking president himself believes in conversion therapy!

wait... there are people working at HUD and doing positive things?

more interestingly she apparently does not scar either, which may be even more intriguing... would nerves regenerate?

3rd: whatever happened to dyson getting into the car market? wasn’t there some weird three way lawsuit with them, tesla, and fisker?

i have an mt09 and love the thing! i feel like the mt10 is a bike that makes sense on paper, lots of power, lots of tech, it’s meant for reasonable adults, but the fz09 is a complete hooligan machine meant to get you into trouble and have a hoot while doing so!

man... the quality of the content on motorcycle.com has seriously gone to shit since zach and ari left.

Seconded!

the mt10 is cool and all... but i kind of prefer the raucous nature of it’s little brother the mt09! the mt10 is a bike that makes sense, the mt09 is a hooligan machine that makes you wonder how anyone signed off on this at corporate and how this could possibly be legal....

not with a halogen bulb... if they had stuck some LEDs in there the square would have worked better

what yamaha are you comparing it to? i ride an fz09 and it rides like a giant super-moto.... 

oh no shit? that’s really interesting, and i can’t believe i had never noticed that!
