I have an original protector on my Hayabusa ( a slow japanese motorcycle ) so far I havent been done with a traffic calming device however I have been given a verbal warning by a member of the police farce to have it removed so if they dont like them they must work :

Having watched a few 'episodes' of ghost rider, your slow Jap bike appears to have great enough turn of slow to blur the image anyway......
Got to ask, how slow have you gone on it?

280 isnt bad, i love hayabusa's theyre great to ride
i remember my uncles ninja ZX-12R (2000?? model either way it was the unrestricted top speed model) used to lift the front wheel at 200+kays, managed to get it up to 340 on a top speed run (that was with a friend riding, his an X racer and can outride pretty much everyone i know). it was definatly a quick bike. but he spent 6K on the motor, so it went like a cut snake. |

Just wondering, (And proving I dont have the balls to go that fast),
What happens when/if the motor throws a rod and siezes at 300+ks?

You suffer the back wheel locking up for a short distance, in which time your brain should register that it's time to pull the clutch in. Of course, if you're leaned over any you're in a world of hurt. Oil under the back tyre tends to be the biggest issue in engine blowups on a bike.

Uncle being Casey Stoner ? Lifting the front wheel at 200 is likely to produce a Max Biaggi effect. : Last edited by Falcon Coupe; 16-10-2007 at 08:25 PM. |

Maybe the uncle's identity is actually RacerX? Good thing Max tucks his leathers into his socks....

do you have 40years riding experience? or have you ridden a modified ninja zx12r? theyre friggin crazy enough standard! lifting the front wheel doesnt mean vertical, you'd either have to be FIN good at riding to do that, or totaly insane! |
