The "bike bang for the buck? " Really? That bike makes the evo look like a bargain to me!

Let's make this a fair comparison shall we? Evo X Comfortably fits 4 people. Price as they listed, $35k.

Motorcycle fits 1, maybe 2 if feeling lucky. Price as listed $10k. $10k x 4 people = $40k.

Evo wins

Look at this way, Evo can still can do better with stock tires and the bike specifically built for that purpose (dirt) ..driving on dirt pavements is a lot fun regardless

"bang for the buck" is how I rated girls in college....but for the Evo vs Bike, I don't think so. When the rain or snow starts to fall, nothing would make riding the bike in the rain better over the Evo.

Any video that, early on, claims that pushing and/or holding down the ASC button actually turns off the AYC should, IMO, be ignored. If they don't even know what the buttons do, even when they write about cars for a living, then who knows what else they are getting wrong.

For those keeping score at home: pressing the ASC button turns off the Type 1 and Type 2 traction control (which are throttle-cut and single-wheel braking, respectively); holding the button down for two seconds turns off the single-wheel braking help for the AYC. There is no button that will turn off the AYC, just as there is no button that will turn off the ACD or the ABS. You can force the ACD to stay open using the hand-brake switch, but even this switch does nothing to the AYC.
