                  Faecesbook makes it money by selling data about it's users, mostly for targeted advertising. Along with that it monitors your usage habits and correlates that with data collected by surveys and other means to build psychological profiles of it's users. Faecesbook has been admonished for these practices yet it falls on deaf ears, lawmakers do little than throw a congressional hearing every now and again to make it appear that they're doing something about it.

                    That was meant as an addendum and endorsement of your post.

                      You are monitored everywhere you go and everything you do. Be afraid.....be very afraid...... I'm pretty certain this site is monitored as well.

                        Every site run by an administrator is monitored by moderators and they watch what is posted. Getting back to the topic-years ago I think it was Motorcyclist or Cycle World modified some bikes to see what top speed was. One bike was a Kawasaki 900 Eliminator that was shaft drive. They put a chain drive on it. Quite interesting article. I might still have that magazine somewhere. Shaft drive definitely hampered the Eliminators ability to produce top speed.

                          Chances are the folks who wrote the software this site uses are getting paid somewhere along the way from the data being collected. As to FEAR I'll leave that to those who require it in order to maintain a sense of personal discipline, I have other ways to take care of that.

                                this is why i think the xs11 is not as popular as a chain driven bikes, if it was chain driven i think they would be on a par with the other top bikes from the same era.
