Obviously the R6 only has one pipe so I had them make two and wrap the carbon differently (with the fold at the base). The X-pipe collector was custom made in the US by a retired aircraft engineer. He did a cracker of a job as it flows better than the Akra system which is available for the max.

I love the new V-max. If my crystal ball told me I'd still be employed
5 years from now...I'd already have one, unfortunately...I don't know if I'll be employed 5 days from now.

I think the key word here is "feel" I have ridden the rocket 3 too and it makes you feel like a big boy and its got some low down grunt too. Real performance is another thing.. from any speed to any speed the rocket is too heavy to even come close..

"Real performance", I would think that would perhaps depend on your personal expectations based on your riding style? I would be quite interested if you could elaborate on this please..

Yes please Larra.
Nobody stops and starts calculating gear ratios or working out the weight difference before they race the bloke next to them who just pulled up and indicated a need to test the acceleration capabilities of his machine. Out in the big wide world, it's dog-eat-dog.

I raced one (vmax) last night actually and she (yes she) ran a 10.6 sec pass.
 I also got to take Vmax for a lap of the car park...can you say torque....Will it out accellerate a busa in top gear at 60kph probably, Will it out accellerate a busa in first gear at 60kph probably not.

Ask her if you can do a pass on it...
That'll bring on the hate mail, traitor!
