Then again ... maybe this is just me talking.

well, i have a 2001 hayabusa, completely stock except for an electronic chain oiler.
the stock busa will not do 200mph, but the '99 model without rev limiter would get very close.
it is a little heavy for only the very twisty stuff, but it is a much lighter feeling bike than many people think once it's rolling.
i have ridden sportbikes for 35 years and it is the ultimate sportbike, nothing comes close in overall engineering or fun riding. and not a bike for novices, very easy to kill yourself on it.
very advance aerodynamics, on many bikes the front end gets light over 100mph, at 140-150mph this bike is rock solid. the fastest i have gone is 160mph on mine, and that's enough for me.
wear your helmet.
