Is motorcycling allowed?

What did that bad biy rev too?

 

I remember riding a CBR250 and thought it was going to explode between my legs at one point.

Mate of my had a GSXR 250, long gears, loud pipe, sounded like a F1 car coming in the distance.

This was many years ago but I think it did 15-16k rpm.

The little 250cc 4 pots are higher than that. I know the ZXR250RR does somewhere around 22k rpm.

Must baffle a traffic cop when he hears a bike doing 300kph but the radar shows 79kph......

One of those was what I had my first big motorbike crash on when I was in matric (Young and dumb.).  A braking highside at flat out in top gear.  Came over a little crest and there was an unexpected corner. 

That wasn't a good day.

Over the last few days I have seen far too many motorbikes with rear lights that are not working during the dark hours of the morning / evening and a couple without working head lights too.

 

Managed to catch up to a bike recently and told the rider .... he had no idea.

 

IF you see these guys, please try and let them know as their lives are in the balance here.

Joe Ma'se Purse!

 

Nice thing about riding in an urban environment is that you can catch up if under the right conditions.

 

Funny thing about the Harley talk ... took a stroll down to the HD in CT over lunch and found a Fat Bob that really really talks to me .... timing is just not right for me yet.

Bet you it talked reeeaaallly slowly.

All that talk last week about small displacement 4 pots and came across this article.

$10k is a bit steep though surely!!!!!

Screw that article - read the one about the MV Agusta advert.  And then watch the advert on Youtube.......

Especially on bikes, like cyclists, plain stupid. I thought that lights come on automatically when one starts a motorbike.
