"middleweights"
 

899, 959, where is this gonna end. So called middleweight bikes have more CC than the superbikes of the 90s.

Progress or daftness?

If it goes on I'll be too embarassed to take my 998 "lightweight sports tourer" out from under its covers.:D

Well it was sort of 600 - 750 - 900
Now it's more like 700 - 950 - 1200

You are right. My first Fireblade was 918 cc which was the top of the range......
