Diavel on the race track
Yesterday Eastside Motosports had a track day (one of three) and they had a Diavel out on the track all day. proof of it is here at their FB site...

I can personally tell you that the Diavel rocks, goes around the track very well and the rubber mounted handle bars make it feel like you are bending them every time you go full throttle, yes it does scrap the foot pegs and after one other person dragged the shifter and broke it off, but hey thats ok.
what a blast......
Oh and I saw 154mph indicated on the speedo just before turn 1, Im sure that a better rider could even get more out of it..

Oh and more video coming later today from a bike following the Diavel, this really shows how fast/hard the Diavel pulls out of the corners as it walks away from a GSXR....
