    Dunno 'bout you, but I'd be afraid of speeding...

    if one of these came here..
    or i lived in the US..

    Story is; The Oklahoma State Police is now using superbike machines as a police interceptor...the Suzuki Hayabusa Police Interceptor.

    The police officer who will be operating this fast freakin bike will be trained at California Superbike School. And it is only a matter of time until the other states will be doing the same thing. So it doesnt matter if you have a Enzo or R1,ZX10R,GSXR1000 etc. your still getting chase down.

    Now thats cool. Still not keen on speeding rounf it though
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Could just be the reflections, but those pix look seriously photoshopped....
    and the designer wasn't particularly imaginative either.
    Keep it rubber-side down...

    And this is how MotoGP StreetRacing is started.. 6 or 7 people going on a cruise, and suddenly, a high and mighty cop on a superbike decides.. LET'S GO, shall we.. and suddenly, it's an all out race, they do it for 10 minutes (or so), they all stop at a pub and have a pint, and the cop shouts them (hehe, silly imagination)

    Hmm as sazlex posted yeah you will need turbo bus's to do runners now in the States. But the chances of coming across a busa god squad... not likely.
