What part of  :roll: don't you understand?
It is apparent the "Tongue in Cheek" dimension was not considered in the total package.

I love the USA. How much longer will we be a free nation?

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.

It depends on the CD. Rock n Roll CD goes faster than Classical CD
Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.

So if you wanted to set a record in the small displacement classes, buy a Busa and throw away 1300cc.

I suppose the fairing would hide an Aprilia 50cc well  :-D

Now that is funny.

What makes this feel incredibly dangerous is not the lack of safety gear from helmet to safety belt, but the wheels! They look sort of like shopping trolley wheels on the front. Death wobble ahoy..

Hey, what is wrong with being comfortable ?
