Yup...the bike was initially introduced in 1985.

It's still going and those secondaries are a blast when they open up.

I doubt the guy on the vmax got into it far enough to get the
secondaries to open up. Been there done that and if your not expecting
it it will scare the hell out of you!

Sorry Tony I have to agree with Bernd. I've ridden that bike quite a few
times and the speed is almost scary. Probably why it's been on the
market for at least twelve years that I can think of.
