Needless to say I don't hang out with these guys other than seeing them at the occasional party. I like to ride fast but 163 mph?! Thats just plain retarded.
FYI Some guy just died doing a 100 on his rocket THIS morning trying to pass a truck on the shoulder of the highway. Here's the link.

I've done some dumb stuff no questions about it. The fastest I went was a buck 45 but i back down and after cleaning out my pants I never went that fast again lol but I like to think that I learned my lesson. I just thought what they were saying was really juvenile

I've had my F4i up to 190 without breaking a sweat. Tell them all race all of them for slips.

Think everyone has taken a peek on the not-too-sane side of the triple digits (I plead the 5th Amendment). At the least just to prove to themselves the bike can do it.

But regular visits and goading others into joining you? Err... Possible candidates for Darwin Awards

LOL! Ahh come on Kuroshio :-), I make regular visits to 140+ all the time -- in a six hour Endurance at Texas World, three of us did 156 laps, about 52 2.9 mile laps each. Hit 140+ every lap (which was about every 2 minutes) and goaded the entire pack to join us (which was easy, 'cause me and my teammates are old and slow). Sometimes I even got passed by the liter boys with about a foot to spare.

Now, if you mean on the STREET.....those folks are crazy!!

Heh, the only time those boys see a track is when they're hanging out under the bleachers to look up girls skirts.
