S
ledgehammers. Katanas.
Slick tires. Krämers. All are
instruments designed for a
singular purpose with little to no
consideration given to any other
application.
They all require your utmost
attention to use it correctly.
You
must be focused and present
when using a Katana, lest you slash
your arm off or your spouse's head.
Likewise, a sledgehammer. Wield
it too wildly, and you're likely to
knock a hole in your neighbor's wall
or car door. This could get awk
-
ward unless it were your intention.
A Krämer shod with
slick tires
is doubly direct but in a different
way. Purpose-built racing
motorcy-
cles are largely a thing of the past
as
the world's sport bike manufac-
turers produce exceptionally
good machines.
A well-set-up Y
amaha YZF-R6
can produce incredibly quick lap
times, but it's still a mass-produced
production machine designed to be
just as good at doing a shop run for
bread and milk as it is sending it
through turn one at Road Atlanta.
