I had a guy on a drag bike - one of those bikes with the big independently attached rear wheel on it (I don't know much about bikes) - try to race me on father hurley the other day while I was minding my own business.
1) Lol car vs bike
2) I didn't want to race.
Dude saw me in his rear view at a light and literally stopped in the middle of the road to wait for me. When he figured out I wasn't going o be an idiot, he did a big smoky burnout it and was immediately pulled over by the cop 2 cars behind me.
lol

Dad lowered the gear ratio for towing the camper and put in a bigger fan on the front of the motor (yes people back then they bolted the fan to the front of the motor).
It was insanely fast up to 75 and because of the fan you could suck a beetle through the grill...
Best sleepers ever... plus at the end of the day... you lost to a wagon! :owned:

Big swingarm on a bike is the equivalent to running a huge wing on a car that never races. A big poser move in the bike world lol.
Also, nice.

This is precisely my point. Corvettes and Porsches start at a pretty high price as it is, but then they aggressively rape you with options.
If I ordered, I could get in one for 60k and be perfectly content.
