Shoot it wouldn't matter if he got the jump or not, hell I would have given him the intersection just to make his 50K car look even slower

There is only a few cars that can beat bikes and only the top 10% of our country can afford them and only 1% of them buy one.

Well, I've passed the breaking in mileage of my bike. I have a little over 1k now and I'm starting to rev it up. Some of you may argue that it won't be fully broken in until thousands of miles, from which point it starts to break down.

Couple weeks ago I was tackling some of my favorite curvy roads, mostly slow tight turns to be taken under 40 mph. There was a red NSX driving up there too, but I was gone after the first corner. It wasn't until my return trip that I passed him on the opposite side. I'm still amazed at a supermoto that passed me up there. He was doing wheelies through turns and all wearing a t-shirt and shorts.

It's amazing how much faster you can go when you hang off and tuck lower.
