My hat goes off to any and all of you who have the gusto to challenge modern sport bikes! Personally, I have less than a full year on a bike, and I live in PA (which to those of not in the know, has been voted "Worst Roadways of America for over a decade, displaced only by Louisiana, thanks to Katrina). It's impressive to hear that with the right rider, these machines of yesterday can still give a modern crotchrocket a run.


I got behind a bunch of sport bikes last week. Well I gotta tell ya, I got down on the bars and twisted the throttle with all my might. I went right past them. Of course, they were pulling in for gas.  ;D

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?
