Straw hats, no glasses and they were probly wearing sandals....Even I wouldn't go there....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v.....buwqU9oxf4

Bruce, I run a software filter that automatically scans web pages and reports unsafe sites based on past problems. The link you posted was reported as an unsafe site.
Just a heads up 🙂

Looks fun to me, and its probably safer than riding a GSX1000 at 90mph thru downtown Seattle on I5, which happens a lot more often than once a year...

You mean the guys that stand on the back peg doing a wheelie while splitting traffic?

Beats me- I long ago decided that, just like adultery, taking acid at work, and shotgunning everclear, riding extremely fast motorcycles is undoubtedly really fun, and something that I am going to skip for now.
As old Clint Eastwood said to that chair- "A man's got to know his limitations".

On the other hand, I thoroughly enjoy tossing red hot metal around, and do that on a daily basis- and I hardly ever burn myself.

If'n I was to choose, the molten metal would win hands down over the $20,000 motorcycle.

That's a cop out Ries, you can easily do 160 on a 2500$ motorcycle.:smoke:

Maybe you can- my bike tops out at about 20mph, and I am peddling really hard to get it to go that fast.

I was looking for wheelies at this speed but these guys are doing pretty good. I saw the one guy with the camera top out his bike at 189 MPH and it sure seemed he really wanted to see 190.

These other guys doing wheelies are just north of Malibu in Calif. Neptunes Net, the place they are in front of has some awesome food and no pretentious snobs
