I have a highly modified streetfighter with Ohlins suspension pushing a whopping 10 hp. This bugger gets pretty hairy in a hurry, so not sure why people would want even more power...

It's not the amount of power, it is how it is delivered. I've had several bikes that make less power, but feel like they have more of a hit when reved out which can fool the mind.
This bike has plenty of power, but a set of cams to open the top end rpm breathing up and a tad more aggressive on the sprockets could make things a little more interesting. Out of the box the designers went a little more mellow than I would have chosen.

Agreed. My first track bike was an RS125 with a quick shifter, and when the power came the first time it was borderline terrifying.
Really the young guy did not lean way forward over the tank to apply the HP . Glad I am old now and my challenges will be braking distance to those who want to race , but in the day I would have taken the Harley really , really bad.
1st gear shift was 70MPH
This Busa was assume and had all the tuning but glad it is gone !
