But from what you're saying... equals more stupid.
The tires have no flex since they are basically low profile.

My mechanic works on this bike right here and I think it's come close to 300 rwhp on the dyno. It's turbo and I don't believe "it's got Naaaauuusss". I've seen it on the road before and apparently he's taken it to Deal's Gap. His tire is nowhere close to those chrome sleds.


I saw a super squid Friday on my way home from work. Some dude with an affliction t-shirt, torn looking shorts, and tattoos down his arm. Had a girl on the bike with a spaghetti strap and tiny shorts. He was on an older R1 and it looked like he didn't really know how to ride. Had some tire on the back that looked like it could get some killer traction in the mud but was showing threads in the middle. He then hopped on the interstate.
