I never have bought that argument, and never will, my
'99 9r had enough
tourque to pull the front off the ground at 30 mph

Actually, I think you're advancing his argument when
you state the Kawi had enough _torque_ for the
wheelies.  My thought was he was referring to
something like a 600 that needs mucho revs to make
decent power.

Paint me green with envy... ;-)

How do you like that TL?  I've never ridden one but
always liked the look. They seem a little torturous
ergo-wise but that's only from sitting on one (and
from what I've read).
