Your analytical thinking is correct...the problem is that SS are not about using them to the max (I can barely imagine a mere mortal fully exploiting a ZX10R or a Blade or a ...). Track/road makes no difference mind, always the bike is toooo much for you/me.

SS they serve as "Image" makers or ego boosting or wanna be Valentino (in another life) and the likes. In that aspect, a racing pedigree...just adds to the pleasure.

That said, of course I want badly that R1000SS (all black - the thing requires a respray) ...for reasons...erm...well...

It could be interesting the battle for braking supremacy: Old school "mechanical" BMW ABS VS the new stunning C-ABS by Honda (available in Blade 09 and the small CBR).
