Can you tell me it bugs me when people base their opinion of a bike on nothing but the peak power output number? I ride a bike with 30 hp (maybe) for goodness sake. But the mid-range is smooth and pulls right through rpm's that are useful on my bike.
Only reason I would have a bike like the zx-14 is so I could brag about my dyno numbers and quarter mile times. So in this case, at least to me, it is all about hp.
