They CAN build practical bikes.

The perfect all purpose street bike:
Honda's Nighthawk 550-4.
Hyd. valves, shaft drive, alloy wheels (I think) and virtually no maintenance except changing fluids, plugs and tires. Will break any posted speed limit.....by quite a bit.
A close second: Kaw Eliminator 600. Same as above except valves. Does 100 with TWO gears left.

The sad part is that neither was made for but a few years.
Even sadder is that I owned both......and was too stupid to keep either.
