    Dare I say that it is sexy?

    Too bad Hogfiddles hit the lottery and I didn't; that $4 would get me almost 2 gallons of gas for that beauty.

    If I sell all my current bikes I could pull it off. But for right now just lusting after it.

    It is a nice looking machine; essentially an FJ-09 with a different cosmetic treatment. Me want, but me can no afford.

    I test drove one today and holy crap!!! I was doing 120 km/h at about 4000 rpm in 6th gear with about another 8000 before red line. I twisted the throttle and it just wants to go. Never was my style of bike but it was the POWER TOUR at the local shop so I said why not.

    I want one, went to dealer here in Alaska and no go. But they did have a FZ 09 on the floor, test rode and in A mode is has a shit ton of torque... oh my! But now I'm looking at a used Buell 04xb12r and 03xb9r, just can't see, to bring myself to pay that much for a bike I will essentially have to leave here every winter when I head back to the lower 48 in September and return in April... I guess there are much bigger problems one could have!

    Not my style, but hey, that's why there are different models.
