Torque Question ?

[MEAN 1]

in a recent article of RapidBikes magazine http//:Rapid Bikes - Home to Australia’s performance motorcycle magazine the dude testing the FZ1N against a triumph speed triple is highly critical of the FZ1's low end torque & that it has to much top end power , IMO the mid range & top end power of the FZ1 is awesome & the highlight of the great engine the R1 based engine the FZ1 has commandered .
are you critical of the FZ1 engine torque / power delivery ? am certainly

RapidBikes Magazine Biased ..

i actually sent off a E'mail to RapidBikes editor & mentioned , that the article Speed Triple vs FZ1N was highly biased & in favour of the speed triple . the FZ1N was given a good all round review , but was bagged for being to good in the mid to top end of its power delivery "WTF" . the tester felt a naked bike should be strong only in the low & mid range & not mid to top end , IMO the FZ1N is tuned spot on .. :thumbup:

p.s. the tester name was "Pommie" go figure ! no wonder he was pro Speed Triple ..

It seems Triumph can do no wrong according to the testers, bit like Microsoft.

Don't buy those magazines

And just how many Triumph ads were in that ragazine, versus how many for the FZ1? I have found, much to my dismay, that all too often anymore, supposedly objective articles in supposed objective consumer driven literature is just so much bought and paid for propaganda. I thought the scuba industry was shameless in this endevear, but more and more lately it seems like the bike magazines, etc. are all selling us the same crap.
