Bored of R1 power....

[Zoolander]

What I'm talking about is giving it 100% 80kph to 180kph in a straight line... Just doesn't rip my arms off the way I remember, so I'm just saying you get used to the speed very quickly...

So change outta second gear and hold the throttle to the stop - see if it still feels slow.

[AllanB]

Yeah - probably like having a twelve inch cock

At first it gets played with a lot, but then you get used to it

I am sure if you give either a good thrashing it will pull pretty hard

I think most people find that riding in a straight line, no matter how fast you can crank the k's, gets boring anyway!

Lol was wondering if ya was talking straight line running ! Anyone can do 280 k in a straight line ! Get to the track ! And yr right, its all about the corners, how smooth can ya get ! Ya ever read *the pace* (search for the thread about it) there's another challenge for ya, see if you can !

I could have my learner mrs doing top speed on an R1 in a matter of weeks (mmmm maybe) but why ?
Unless yr a drag racer and its yr buzz to do the quater in under 8 but then ya better to look at a ZX kwaka or a Busa and unleash another 10 to 20 grand at it ! Then ya may get tossed off the back !

Put a f..ing big turbo on it mate.

[boomer]

yeah, the R1s are pretty tame eh... perhaps try a fireblade?

Roger that pink leader, even too tame/lame for that Mr J Random geezer who obviously got bored with it too and threw it down the road...


buy a honduh, then you'll realise silly questions like this are no longer silly once you've come out of the closet!

Might be time try a bit of adventure riding you think? On the R1..................

Find a quiet gravel road, drop down a cog and give it a handful. If that doesn’t get the adrenalin pumping, I don’t know what will!
Oh and look out for sheep!

[alanzs]

Play with a Hayabusa for a while and you'll never go back... Gives a rush better than a nose packed full of blow!

There might just be a farmer's fence out there that's willing to rip your arms off.

Though there would be a high risk of coming out the other side looking like McCain oven chips!

[cowboyz]

it has to be a pisstake. Unless it is the boredom of doing 180 down the striaghts and 25 round the corners getting to ya

[nevets]

Remove the brakes, they're just dead weight anyway.

Adventure? Psh.

[RC1]

[cowboyz]
