Hi guys, I hope this is the right section of the forum and that this isn't too cheeky for a first post...
With regards to naked unfaired motorcycles and specifically those with upright handlebars:
Is it possible to ride such a machine with wide bars sitting upright at, say, 180mph?
How stable would the bike/rider system be?
Anyone here ridden a non-specialised roadbike at these sorts of speeds?
The question comes from a road riding motorcycle forum (VisorDown.com) where many members are "streetfightering" their hyper-sports machines; stripping off the fairings and fitting wide upright handlebars. While that makes a fun machine, I am wondering just how safe and stable they would be at high speed.
Many thanks
Screwdriver.
