BTW, I'm pretty sure my motorbike will out-accelerate your 'vette to 60 mph and some ways beyond. That would be your Zimmerman-like bike, right? Nope, it's Italian, and it's very fast. Faster than your pushrod V8 hawg car under many conditions, I am sure, though I'm not a skillful enough rider to wring its best out of it. I can't do this, but I've seen tests of the same model I have run the quarter mile in a hair over 10 seconds, with a terminal velocity of 145 mph. How's that hawg 'vette do in the quarter mile? Bull****, YOU said right here last year that you bought a Kawasaki.... And that was probably a lie as well. As many times as he's said that no one needs or should have a high perfomance boat, car, etc., you can be sure he didn't buy a high performance bike or sports car. And if he did, em would be along in a minute questioning his manhood, right? This is really some high-dollar entertainment, and for free! :- Actually, I did buy a Kawasaki, I kept it for a while, more than a year, and then I sold it to buy an Italian bike, which was my first preference, but I didn't want to make that sort of investment until I determined whether I'd still enjoy motorcycling. My guess is that my non-British sports car accelerates about as fast as your 'vette, and that you have 10-15 mph top end on me. Maybe, if your valve train can actually take it. I know my non-Japanese Italian motorcycle will out-accelerate your 'vette on the straights and in the right driver's hands (not mine, to be sure), blow you right off any real sports car racing track. I know that because a model similar to what I have has been raced against Ferrari's and Lamborghini's and has come out on top...with a pro motorcycle racer doing the driving. "Actually" is supposed to mean "this wasn't a lie"? WAFA! |
