For me, low-down stomp is what it's all about. I would be surprised if I ever have anything else other than a twin.
There was an article in one of this months car mags (don't know which one, I was just browsing in Tesco) that said that the new TVR was a lot of fun even at very low speeds (loads of bottom end grunt and makes you know it) whereas the sublimely accomplished Merc AMG SL65 was boring until you got into highly illegal speeds.
I see this as being like the SV and a super-sport inline four. While the latter might technically be far superior in every aspect, you have to be riding at licence-loosing speeds in order to fully enjoy it, whereas with the SV it's ear to ear fun the second you dump the clutch at the lights.
