I'd fight the shit out of that... Unless modified, the bike doesn't go that fast... and in the rain... I dunno...

must be a democrat if hes going 193 :lol:

I can see a busa or zx14 hititng those speeds.

The thruway/I87 is a prety boring straight stertch of road so I cna see knuckleheads making high speed runs there.

eh....it depends

Democrats split into 2 groups....

Timid, treehugger, non-partying types......Volunteer at the shelter every week.......Never cuss....Sometimes teach Sunday School.......Those people drive slow as molasses.......Often rusted 1970's Volvos if they're poor, or a mid 90's Corolla/Camry if they're middle-class. They eschew material possessions, so if they ever buy a new car, it has to be something "non-showy" like a Honda Fit or Element. A few of them buy a New Beetle because they like its happy-go-lucky, non-aggressive image.

The other group of Democrats is the "progressive/trendy/I would never vote Republican because I'm too cool for that"..........Those people do buy alot of material goods (ipads, chrome rims, etc), and do drive fast.........They tend to drive Acuras, Infinitis, Audis, Mazdas, and VWs. They attended the 99% marches because they thought it was cool to "rebel" against the same system that supplies them with all those cool gadgets. :scratch:

Likewise, Republicans split into 2 groups as well.....

Guys who are into Republicans for the "macho" reasons......."I can't associate myself with a ghey/unpatriotic party like the Democrats"..........Those people usually drive fast. Their cars of choice are Camaros, Mustangs, pickups........and motorcycles. They are also usually into guns and martial arts.

Then you have people who are Republican only for its fiscally conservative philosophy. A lot of them are up there in age, so they tend to drive a little bit slow.... but still way faster than the first group of Democrats I mentioned. These people drive a very wide mixture of vehicles, as their personality has not been polarized by any misguided social viewpoints like the other 3 groups have.

Where does it say it's a honda?

I was hydroplaning like a boss.
I hit a puddle at about 55mph and it was a downhill slope.
Cops tagged me at terminal velocity.

This person was in upstate ny
and was lame enough to get caught
Pauldun fits both those qualifications
And he rides a honda

pauldun lives on long island, far from upstate, were about as south as you can get in NY ;)

It's a goal of mine to make a daytrip up there this summer tommy and come have lunch with you at barnstormers...Since you talk about it enough

That would be cool, but were not going to try and break 200 miles an hour on the way up there :lol:

6r Only goes 155...Ish. Lol

youre on a 6 and I will likley be on a ST bike, unless I take the buell, then I may push 170's indicated at least :lol:

Lol, Im all for a leisurely ride to wherever it is that place is

I call bullshit. You missed a whole section of the first group who desperately crave material possessions for the self actualizing message those possessions are supposed to say about the buyer. This group also has a ton of iShit, but where vehicles are concerned they buy hybrids, plug in hybrids, or electrics exclusively. See the thread about the electric scooter for an example.

Nah, self-actualization/grandization = the second group. They care what others think of them, including their supposed concern for the environment. They represent most Prius owners. Someone could give them a good argument that the Prius isn't actually good for the environment, and they'd still buy it, just to "belong" to the green movement.

In contrast, the first group doesn't care whether other people are aware of their good deeds, or about belonging to some trend.

Also, the second group always makes sure they're stylish and trendy with their clothes and hair. In contrast, the first group buys most of their clothes at Goodwill. If they ever buy new clothes, it's from a fuddy-duddy, ultra-conservative brand like Lands End.

It's fun to put people in little rows and columns, but I do have to wonder if an Excell based perception of humanity can be relied upon.

Some people just don't like to color inside the lines.

JC

Makes sense, the car brands listed under that group threw me though. None of them really fit the "I'm an angel to Mother Earth so I can be a shitbag to everyone else" attitude.

These busts just make it clear that radar equipment is hopelessly inaccurate and the speeding racket is just a scheme for revenue.

"But but but...if you're not doing anything wrong, you've got nothing to worry about!!"

This is the world according to Homeslice.
Try to keep up.

Put it this way.....both groups are just as likely to buy Priuses.....but the first one does it because they genuinely believe it helps.....The second does it because it's hip/trendy/ and lets them show off their good intentions. But the second group also buys a lot of showy sports sedans like Acuras, Audis etc.......

No matter Democrat or Republican, only a small portion of people are willing to settle for a greenie car. The rest give in to their baser desires for luxury/size/speed/style, or are smart enough to realize that buying a used late-model car would be better for the environment than buying a new Prius.

Well it's clearly flawed...I drive a Pickup and a Motorcycle and my Ass isnt Republican.

But is it Democrat?

Which is surprising since you don't have a soul. :lol:

Nope, Both parties are Fucked.

The American Government in general is Fucked.

It's Neither.

:lol: cant come back from that one.

Why, is Sixxer a ginger?

yeppers

I just dont give a fuck anymore because that's all Trip ever says and frankly...It's fucking stupid.

Blame Southpark....

Stupidest Fucking show ever.

There right wing approach to political issues and how they pitch it with cartoon characters is actually brilliant in some ways. I just think it's a fucking horrid show to try and watch.

My 1125 topped out at 172 on the dyno (no wind resistance). 163 is the highest real world indicated speed I have seen on it.

was that recorded by the dyno or the speedometer? I can see loosing soem mph too in the real world vs the dyno just for wind resistance.

Dyno. I have no idea what the indicated speed was, as I was not on the dyno to look.

I haven't told a ginger joke on here in awhile. It just fit well with the Republican crack. LOL

Other way around
