Before it's permanent, go smooth out that pucker in yer seat[8D] The trick to living through literally thousands of 150+ mph runs is to do it when there is no traffic. Cagers are stooooopid. Regardless of the fact that they were eating, talkin on the cell, reading the paper and peeing in a cup while they swerved in your lane you can be sure that they'll blame it on you[:@]

 

Believe you me...I definitely learned a lesson! I was just trying to see what this bike could do and he was the ONLY car on the Parkway! Of all times for this dingbat to screw up, he hadda do it on my clock[:@]. If anything, it definitely helped me to fear and respect my bike a helluva lot more. Whooda thunk a 600 could go so fast and skid so well

 

600's are as fast as 1000's...the aren't as quick...but my buddies '04 zx636r with a power commander and pipe could keep up with my '03 cbr954rr pipe power commander k&n filter both reading digits hovering near 175+ flying down the interstate at night splitting cars...not my smartest driving experience yet to date but i'm still here to tell the tale...and yeah if u can't get that sucker goin as fast as it'll go in less than a mile then ur jus too scared...which isn't necessarly a bad thing...i think my problem is that i'm just too stupid to stop

 

Ive gotten my 6RR up to 163 and was keepin up with my friend on a gsxr 6 which speedo was saying 168, and we had about 6 other bikes with us including a 05 RR and he wasnt keepin up with me and my friend.

We all compared, and they all said we were doin bout 165 on all speedos... so Maybe ALL speedo's are wrong?

 

Im not here to flame... but why are you so pissed at this guy who was driving legally, whilst you were driving flat-out ILLEGALLY. You also gotta remember, even though the bike can do it, that doesnt mean its "right" and "just". Im not saying, in anyway, that its not fun... but c'mon. If your going to bad things, you should realize that you have to cover yourself at all times... most people arent looking for a bike cruising 150 + when the road may be a 50 mph road. If they glance and see you way out there, thinkin your doin 50, not 150, they got plenty of time.

im sorry, but I had to say it. Im not trying to be mean, or shut you down, as I do the same things you do. Its addicting... just watch out for yourself and be overly cautious at those speeds... wierder things have happened....

*edit: I forgot to add that Im glad your alright, and hopefully have taken something from this experience (other than your soiled drawers) As Ive been told "TAKE THAT SEAT OUT OF YER A$$ AND TRY IT AGAIN" :P ok ok... maybe not the BEST of advice [:-]

 

I hit 164 on the speedo just barely before I got home from work... Its a nice little 5 mile stretch of nothin by my house... I just hooked my power commander up 2 days ago, and its alot smoother...

^Your talkin about peejay? I hope.

I cant wait to get my GOOOOOODIES in [&:]

 

^^^^ yeah, talkin to peejay.

 

I hear ya LOKI but as a rider WE ALL know that we should "ride within our limits" Ya get to dem by pushin yer self a lil at a time, at least dats what I do. I aignt tryin ta cause static wid ya neither. I feel ya on the whole being safe thang cuz yer right. folks on 4 don't even see us at 40mph and they still bump/run into us ,and Stretch put it just right, as day be fiddlin around wid $hit in durr ride. Just be safe! We ALL KNOW what we got our selves into when we took up 2 wheels, lets just remember ta be straight when we're ridin!

 

^^^^ I agree fully...

 

Uhhh.. admittedly, I was driving way too fast but as I said:He was doing 85 in a 55 also and didn't signal when changing lanes! I figured it was just him and I on a long,empty highway when that jackass decides to "veere" into my lanne for no reason whatsoever without even a warning without using his turning signals! I wanted to push the bike and I felt that would've been the perfect time to do it as there is very rarely a time like that when there are no other vehicles around! We all try to find the perfect circumstance to push the bike a little and I figured that was mine until this dickweed got in my way! That's why I'm mad[:@]! He was just as much at fault as I! He's lucky I didn't follow him and smash my friggin' helmet through his back window!
