RE: High speed?
Actualy no. Not any idiot can go fast. Anyone can go fast once......lol If your head is not in it then you won't live to write about it. "So no not any idiot can go fast" It takes concentration skill and nerve. Remeber though the more you do it the more likely your number is going to come up because even the pros crash. Only thing you can do is try to stay off the gas and make sure you are wearing gear I stil don't have all of my gear so I realy try to stay off the gas for the most part at least

RE: High speed?
Ive hit 147mph on my 05 600RR going up a hill, ran out of road and had to back off. People ask me if its scary going that fast, and i tell them you get a lot of adrenaline going and dont have time to worry about being scared.

any idiot can hold the throttle open in top gearuntil the engine just wont turn any faster.it doesnt take skill, or concentration, just nerve.

RE: High speed?
And like I said anyone notice I did not say any idiot ......anyone can do that once. What your saying is wrong period. This isa pointless conversation because they have to have some amount of skill to drive it in the first place. You have to be concentrating or you run off the road. Nerve is just a polite way of saying they have the ***** to put thier life on the line cause wraped out thats just what your doing.And please do not refere to people as idiots just because you dissagree with what they might be doing.
