Rider > bike every time. It's true for cars too but it's exponentially more evident on 2 wheels. People always buy bikes because of what a professional racer on a closed course can make it do, not because of how it performs for them, at their skill level, in the real world. If I had it to do over again I'd have a 1098 Streetfighter instead of my 848... maybe less capable on a track, but tons more fun/comfortable for what I actually use it for.
