holy crap, thats unreal. My 929 is supposed to do it in 9.5something, and im afraid to twist that thing all the way. The best I got from my CBRF4 was 11.71.

Yammys have always put out engines that pushed a few more ponies than their competition. They did this at the expense of low and midrange. Big beefy intake runners move a lot more mixture, but dont do so well on the low end. They're gutless on the low end, but above 10k, look out. To some folks, all things being equal, they'd take the higher HP bike.

Everyones got their favorites, but one of the reasons I love Hondas so much is their even powerbands.
