I got my bike dirt cheap from a guy in Pasadena, made it back to Phoenix in 4.5 hours with three stops for gas.
I met a gal last summer with an SKR and she absolutely shredded on that thing. Had never seen one on the road before then. It is plenty fast.

I'm in your camp: doubt I'll ever wring out 75% of the performance of the RR. Its capable way beyond my skill. I can't deny the draw of having the latest and greatest.
