My LC aint that bad i wouldnt say its super quick.

IMHO The main problem is the brakes. Shes got way more go power than stopping power.

what brakes?
They do seem to be let down somewhat by their stopping power. Matt bought the Raptor after a large stint on the YPVS, and woooooooo through his teeth he did go when he first used the Brembos

Lets just say the SV failed miserably They don't just keep up Robo....they leave them standing in a cloud of blue smoke wondering where the hell they went
Hehe,yeah i can believe it,a 2 stroke(rgv,kr1s,& even the 350ypvs) were just awsome at screaming high revs,along with the handling (light & flickable)there's no embarrasment in losing out to them on the twisties.
