Comments: The dual suspended, fully faired Missile is my highspeed
racing commuter with cargo bays---the retired race bike of the Chicago
HPV team, modified for street use. The low-racer inside is a great sport
"Ferrari" bike. And the Vision R-40 is just a grin to ride. The Vision
has a wonderful stiff frame and was a great learner's test bike for me
since it was so easily modified: I rode it in maybe 6 configurations, including
fully-faired 20x20 with reversed fork. It has ended up back in near-stock,
as a fun bike, in USS, with an old 3-speed handlebar which is much narrower,
more compact and aero than the old style stock bars.
