Except that the things that make it so much more expensive are all things that are there to increase its performance. So why buy the most technologically advanced high performance bike on the planet if your not going to use it?
It'd be like buying a $9000 down hill mountain bike to ride along the boardwalk at the beach.
Or lets buy a $3000 70" flat screen and watch nothing but VHS tapes on it. Lol.
Now had I only been looking at pictures, I wouldn't have thought twice about it. There's been times I've just cruised out there and not ridden hard at all. Not to mention conditions out there were a little sketchy yesterday. I wasn't riding hard at all. This was me about 20 minutes before the other group rolled through. I normally have my knee on the ground in that turn. But the road wasn't in the best shape so I wasn't pushing in the slightest bit. But seeing the 3" wide chicken strips on a worn out tire tells me the conditions weren't the factor.
It also makes me question the riding ability and how well can he handle a bike with nearly 200hp. :don'tknow: Who knows. Maybe the guy is a great rider and like you say, he's just scared to do anything with it because it cost so much. There again, why spend twice as much money if you're going to be too afraid to use the thing.
