Why,s that dude? is it the lack of acceleration? 
Have never liked V twins as supersportsbikes
i just dont like the power delivery, but the feeling is nice, but still prefer the 3 cylynder motors also yogi the tlr Is a nice bike pretty quick etc but a friend of mine had one when the rest of us had r1's 10r's blades etc and it just couldnt compete(we where all pretty much the same standard riders)
Hello Scottie....never said a TLR could compete against a 10R or equivalent in outright performance,thats what prompted me to trade up in the first place!Even with equal riders but as we all know put a good rider on an underdog and an average on an R1,etc then its down to the rider!
All i was saying is the TLR is a good sports bike and weel capable of keeping up with bigger bikes and more than fast enough for the road!!

I am well aware there are guys oout there on tlr's way faster on the road or round the track than me, i was merely pointing out that an individual will lose their licence a little bit quiker on the 4's but the guy on the tlr will loose his licence half a second l8r
As you quite rightly point out for the non gp riders of us we are the limiting factor in speed not the bike
