Just your basic MotoGP bike out for a little street ride around the town...
Love the sound, and the pedestrian reactions are kind of funny...

well first you have to get it, second you have to turn it into a V4 then you gotta... the only word I can think to describe how that thing sounds is GRIZZLY. I like it a lot.

I can't think of anything legal to drive on a street that sounds even close to that good. Some people like the screeching inline noise but I like that GRIZZLY roar.

 Much better reactions in a community that actually appreciates a fine motorcycle. Definitely more of a motorcycle culture (I don't count the tractor on 2 wheels concept) in the UK. I'm sure that lady at the end was thinking "That would be a right nice bike if they added some paniers"

It might not sound exactly the same, but there's probably going to be a 360 degree crank V4 at Grattan again this year...

It actually sounds exactly like my buddy Dan's VFR with his Micron System on it.

i saw and heard one at Laguna at some italian magazine test. I have had 3 VFRs asnd they don't sound anything like a VFR. Well maybe only in the V-4 rumble, but that things sounds like mechanical sex. Like a ferrari motor in a bike. A super high compression light weight V-4. Man it was cool.
