    try riding a 08 zx10r with 210 hp, now that thing idles to over 60km lol, I didnt even get to take it out of first gear and when I did any way from idle it jumped to 80kmph haha,

    Now i really can not justify having a bike with that kind of power. was just kinda scary lol

    depends what lights at the drags about 90% whilst slipping the clutch.

    being lazy around town, about 50%.

    front wheel shoots up to the sky if you sudden whack on as little as 30% throttle

    Humans are amazing things. They can get over prob almost anything
    Its a fact that if you give the person a powerful bike and some time to practice, he will get used to it. Well the cockyness will grow at the same time depending on the person too

    :slap: All you had to do was tell me that part! I remember being poor as a student, didn't like it! Never mind, just remember to pay it forward.

    Hehe, well I ride like a nana and I was interested to see how the ER handled (very nicely thanking you!) I was going to ride my Big Ol'Hornet that day, but since Zeo said I could have a go, who was I to say no?

    And yes, was interesting to hear the effect of the loud little ol'hornet! Never knew what people were talking about until that day!

    ... now, how is Daisy doing with Jafa?
