Biggest was a 650, only hit 100mph on that one. But have been a passenger of a Monster a few years back. Madness.

The bigger question is: can you ride like MAQ?

Yeah my cbr500 engine felt like it was stressing around 80mph. Also was getting blown around by wind. I can hit like 100 instantly with 750, and wind is basically a non issue. U ride?

I was going to make a dirty joke but I shall refrain

I always wonder how people who ride motorcycles never get a heart attack when they turn. It is sooooo scary to watch because the entire motorcycle and person literally like tilt to the side/direction of the turn and it looks like a life or death #situationz to me tbqh and I'm not here for it but I like the #look of motorcycles tho

Balance & Confidence?

I've always wanted to drive a motorbike but I am too scared. Plenty of motorcycle-related accidents. It's pretty scary.

Haha what were you on?

I have a Ninja H2 and it's a handful. It's a little quicker than a busa. GSXR 1000 has been my favorite so far, super lightweight and power to weight is almost perfect. 202 is as fast as I've been on the Ninja before I let off.

2016 gsxr 750. I know the h2 is ridiculous. How many speeding tickets do you have? I feel like just passing a car can potentially get me speeding ticket. Life is good

Gixxers are just all around great sport bikes, consistently. Is it piped or have a power commander?

Knock on wood, none. About a week into having it my neighbor (cop) about had me, he was just too slow to verify it was me lol. I drove it in the garage, threw my jacket off, and walked towards the mailbox waiving at him as he finally caught up from having to turn around. I rarely have a chance to ride though. Really ride.

Yeah the power commander has 2 modes (A & B). The guy at the shop told me "B" basically turns the bike into a 600cc bike. I never use "B" lol. How long have you owned the bike? That's amazing you've never gotten a ticket. One small crank of throttle & you're over the speed limit.
