Topic: I'm scared of my motorcycle.

[trueblue]

trueblue, take that thing to the strip and get a time slip cuz we aint believing it..

BTW the speedo fudges as much as crank vs rear wheel hp...

My speedo is an electronic unit, not the stock one, and it is accurate, albeit a little slow to react, the road I live on pulls straight out onto the highway and there is a crossroad 150m down the road, and as I get to the crossroad my speedo is reading 120kph, and if I roll off the throttle it actually continues to climb to 130 even though I'm slowing down.  So 120 is a conservative estimate, probably closer to 130 in reality.  The quickest I have had it to is 163kph and it is pulling strongly.

When I started going to the strip, I had to recalibrate how fast I THOUGHT I was going..

 If you think dirt is scary, try riding a 750 on compact snow..

 Going around a corner, under light throttle, you break loose and go sideways, you chop the throttle.... and immediately pitch sideways in the opposite direction, just from the compression       
 Somtimes you end up with a mini version of the KO ducktail in trhe middle of the seat , from CLENCHING so hard....

Don't you have tire chains?

You need drywall screws and a sidecar.
