It can't even take my overgrown dirtbike much less a supersport. Not from a standing start, not from a roll-on.

I haven't heard of the site much less the sticky.

If you say so. I say differently.

I will only concede that the one I rode may have had more done to it than I know of.

Thumbs up

I like it. I took one out for a 40 min. hooligan test ride through Scottsdale today and had a fucking blast. Good thing I can't afford it, this bike would make me do bad, bad things. It just hauls ass all the way through the rev range and has a fair amount of clearance for leaning it over. If I had money to blow on a 3rd bike like this, I'd probably do it.
