Yep, the Falco is a real "wolf in sheep's clothing" sort of bike. It may not be as fast in a straight line as a CBR / GSXR, but it's a shedload more fun!
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

I was not impressed with his gsxr 600 really gutless compared to the Falco

That'd be 45 ish lb/ft torque against 70 ish.
I'm right 98% of the time so why worry about the other 3%?
