Randy sounds pretty surprised, and although I have a ZX-10 instead of an -11,
I'm also a little surprised. I would think that our brakes are pretty similar,
and the front brake on my -10 is very capable. It has enough braking power to
lock the front wheel without incredible effort, but enough feel so I can avoid
locking. No squishiness at all.

Can you be more specific about what needs to be improved? In what way was the
CBR900RR superior? Are you sure you're talking brakes, not tires?

Recently, my boss bought a VFR750.  He's wanted one forever, but I think
it was my purchase of my CBR two years ago that really set him in motion.
 His wife strongly disapproves, and will not get on the machine.

I went to their Halloween party, and showed up with a very pronounced
limp from a badly sprained ankle.  When I talked to Mrs. Boss, she
noticed my injury, and we had a brief conversation:

   Mrs. Boss:  Are you OK?  You seem to be limping.
          Me:  I'll be alright, it's a sprained ankle.
   Mrs. Boss:  A motorcycle accident, right?
          Me:  No, doing something really dangerous.  Playing volleyball.
   Mrs. Boss:  (Sounding disappointed) Oh.

Geez.  Some people.

  The first one that comes to mind is the Benelli Sei 750cc 6, a beauty.
The second one is the KZ1300 Kawasaki touring barge, an _ugly_.
The only V-6 that I know of is the Laverda inline, prototyped in the late
70's and race once or twice in the European endurance series.  I
understand that it is to be produced in very limited quantities as a
street bike.
  Honda, of course built the 6-cylinder transverse 250 GP bike, as raced
by Hailwood.
  Several Indian and Henderson 4's have had two extra cylinders added to
make inline vertical 6's.  These were _really_ long bikes to start
with.

It's not, in fact Kevlar is better than nylon, according to Cycle
magazine's tests. (See below)

>(according to the article) it is not as abbrasion resistant as good old
>leather.

True.
===========================================================================
In the Sept. 1988 issue of Cycle they "road tested" several grades of
leather, nylon and Kevlar. The two tests were dragging the material at
50 mph until it failed, and running a sample on an abrasion tester
until failure.

At 50 mph the results were:

	"Natural Armor"
3 oz leather		86'  0" 

	"Strong Synthetics"
Kevlar			22'  1" 
Codura Nylon		18'  3"

	The Rest
1.75 oz leather		 4'  4"
2.25 oz suede		 4'  3"
Denim, 2 year old	 4' 0.5"
Denim, new		 3' 10"
Ballistic Nylon		 3' 10"

The results were a bit different on an abrasion tester, but the overall
ranking was 3 oz leather, then the synthetics, and far behind those were
denim and thin leather. Note that the best synthetics are 1/4 as effective
as HEAVY leather, while lightweight leather is considerably worse than the
synthetics, and far worse that heavy leather. Of course multiple layers
of any material is better than a single layer.

Another point not covered by the table is that a material with a hard,
slick finish is important because it resists snagging and tearing. The
reason that Cordura nylon did so much better than the thicker Ballistic
nylon is that the coarse weave of the Ballistic caught on a flaw in the
road, and tore. The suede finish leather suffered a similar fate on the
road. On the other hand, Ballistic nylon did much better on the abrasion
tester where snagging was not an issue.

There are also laws against using tires in this condition. Attempting to

Maybe he was wearing it because it was cold. He sure doesn't seem to
