Not surprising. Yamaha did this year what the S1000RR did when it was released--big tech step forward. Everybody else will catch up in a year or two.

Good review, roughly what I would expect in finishing order at the track.

Just wonder what the order will be after they review the Aprilia and MV...

I'm thinking the Aprilia will be 3 or 4, MV nearer the bottom. But it sure is pretty.

I would be surprised if aprilia tops the R1 and MV never places well.
