    I have some mates who are great guys. Most of em ride liter bikes and quite regularly are on the limiter of 299. When you look at their front tyres, you'll think they just came back from a race day or something. And to answer your original question of how fast have some of us gone at the back wheel, my mate on the CBR1000RR has gone over 250 on his. Now this sort of riding is still questionable. People will still object doing it on public roads. Yet I am still OK with it cause let's face it, what were they made for if you can't have a bit of fun on them anyway. I know there is the track but it is not practical to go to the track every week and so and soforth.

    However non of these guys appear to be arrogant pricks. They are not up themselves. They may be highly talented but they don't go around saying that to every other person. Unlike you. That is why you annoy the fuck out of me!

    there's too many teenage shit-eaters running around who cannot make the distinction between words at the very basis of our language, neither in written or spoken forms; words like they're/their/there, to/too/two, it's getting really bad.

    but no, because of some strange stigma attached to respecting our mother tounge, and appearing vaguely intelligent, many young people give no priority to improving their ability to speak OUR BLOODY LANGUAGE! what can be done about it? I'm all ears for suggestions.

    Since most teenagers are, to say bluntly, dickheads, schools end up being total crap toward the good kids, as the school has to lower itself to meet with the lowest common denominator. If a couple of kids are dickheads, they will treat the rest of them as dickheads i.e. the whole class staying in for lunch cause of a couple of kids at the back of the class throwing darts.

    When will we be given licences to kull these infidel homies!

    or comin up to lights and grabing a hand full of breaks, and pull off a phat rolling stoppies,

    Go to a school where they stream you! You notice through the years the change in dare i say it ethnic spread and overall willingness to learn from students when in higher graded classes

    sorry man take a breath count to ten, na fuck it count to 10,000

    just kidding. 250kph on the back wheel god dam would love to see that, i have issues trying to land anything over 190kph, had the worst tank slapper when i landed the 244. as for being an "arrogant prick" fully i guess i have always looked up2 people who could pull off the wikd tricks, now thats me. now that i think about it they were arrogant 2. as for annoy the fuck out of you, well if you let something that some arrogant prick said on the net annoy you there aint a whole lot i or any1 else can do about that.

    Ah well, the CBR is still damn awesome

    He had the same problem with landing it at speeds over 200 with his 02 R1. He thought that it would someday make him bin-it.

    However since he has had the honda with the electronic steering damper, he reckons he has never ever had a tank slapper and probably never will. Even when landing it at over 200 with the front wheel crossed sideways, it'll wobble for a bit and correct itself nicely.

    Have you got a damper on yours? It won't be a good as the electronic one probably but it'll help lots.

    na no damper, when i first got it i thought i neede it but then i sorted the rear suspension out and got rid of the head shake, i wouldnt mind one just for wheelies though. no doubt i will bin mine one day from landing crossed up but thats the price of fame i guess

    Na bud not on the road till Thrsday, dam yamaha parts have to come from Ozzy, so doing the full service while its off the road, valve clearnce, clean and change oil in forks, oil, filters the whole nine yards, god dam mission, should be algd when done tho. handicapped people are welcome we let heaps of people with suzukis come. do Suzukis get there own parking spots? that hardly seem fair

    Yeah Suzukis do get their own parking spots bro, its called the first park!!

    True, it is a bit unfair, but Suzuki hold back development of their bikes for a couple of years with each new model, gives the rest a chance to catch up. Then Suzuki move the goal posts again.

    All good bro, I might pop over later.
