| | Is the Buell Firebolt the best sport bike out at this time? The only comparison for the torque, power and handeling is see is the Honda RC51. |

| | There is no such thing as "the best sportbike." The XB9R and XB12R are both comfortable and have large amounts of torque which makes them ideal for regular and aggressive road riding. However, if by "best sportbike" you mean "most overall power and highest top speed" then no, a ZX-10R or R1 will always outperform the XBs... they're simply designed for different things. In my opinion the Buell is one of the best... but then again I'm not riding on the track. |

| | I agree, the best way to discribe this bike is that it's a "Sport Bike" not a "Race Bike". If you are here for the RIDE and your not just going to be going in circles real fast then YES, I think this is just about the best sport bike you can get in terms of real world riding. |

| The rc51 is a torque monster well so is the 'Bolt12r it is not gonna win any 1/4 mile shoot outs but it is plenty quick more like sleeper quick when you look at the speedo you are going super legal speeds so just dont be ham fisted with this bike. Truth be known the better term for this bikes category is sport fighter the Buell is not about the fast way there but the road less traveled.Leave the road blasting to gsx, zx,cbr and r1's.
