I've read both the threads you've started now and I must ask why you started two threads on the same topic?
The other thing I have noticed is that you are upset with sports bikes because, even though you say you don't want one, deep down you really do so that you will be able to sow up these amateurs at track days because finally you won't be ragging your bike in the corners just to have them blast past you on the straight.
Your question hasbeen answered but you don't like the reply.
It is down to personal choice. S&M is risky in my eyes but I don't seek to question why someone would want to practice it and neither would I want it banned.

They are two different questions, one relates to the design of agressive looking bikes and their performance which in itself is advertised as agressive and the fact that they are beyond the capabilities of even some seasoned riders when ridden on the road and linked to the born again and overall fatality stats..........................completely different to the question 'what is the point' which relates to all sports bikes on the road.
I like the fact that you think yourself something of a psychologist as you tell me Im upset!
Im not as clever as you as I cannot read the mental attitude of a total stranger on a webpage.You should read more as you would see that not only do I like sports bikes, Ive owned many over the years. You also say my question has been answered but I dont like the reply.......I dont think this web site is run from the school playground?
And your ref to S&M......I have not said I want to ban anything. How can someone get so many things WRONG and then presume to dictate what I think and what mental state Im in on the subject? Tell me,do you want a fight with everyone you meet who poses a question or comment about sports bikes that you neither understand or assume is a condemnation of your favoured toy? And stop trying to psycho analyse me further as you are already way out.
It is a question for comment and debate, what I think is what I think ,based on something tangeable, I have already agreed with personal choice and ease of ride amongst others as 'The Point!' I have also debated some of the reasoning of others. If someone offered me a swap my current road bike for a brand new ZX10 for example , I would jump at it, but it doesnt have the slightest effect on my reasoning regarding the posted questions.I just dont think people have capacity to understand things sometimes.
