I just re-watched this video and timed his run and it was almost exactly 8 seconds. - Which makes more sense since that is the acceleration I've timed on my older, but lighter MP3 500.
While he is right on the money in most of his other comments, I didn't understand the issue with too much wind hitting him while riding. I suspect his windshield is mis-installed or at the wrong angle. I have the "standard" dealer installed aftermarket mid-height windshield and am perpetually amazed at the lack of wind and/or rain hitting me while riding. Only an expensive touring bike would give more wind/rain protection.
Yeah the speed test was off when he said it. I thought when I watched it was about 8 seconds as well
