Do little 300's need traction control? Can't imagine it'd be very hard to control 30'ish ponies and 2 piston calipers up front prolly don't scream to a halt like your typical dual 4 pot superbike. My dad's FJR has linked ABS and it works awesome, but makes me a lazy rider.
I like the little R3 just the way it is... but maybe it could use some more blue in the lower fairings.  |
Miata - agree, I loved sending my 2000 into a controlled drift. But I am probably a year or two away from being able to drift a rear wheel on a motorcycle, so I'd get any help that will help me to push envelope, knowing that my ass is covered - more or less. If I never use TC or ABS, all the better. I hope to never use the armor in my jacket too.
