4-5 runs and the clutch is scrap. Shit, that is some crazy power.

spaz12 I asked them and here is the reply. Certainly gives an extreme example of some of the compromises with more power. Stock Engine = Ride it for many thousands of miles with just routine maintenance Extreme Racing = Try to take it around the block once and rebuild the whole engine/trans full of top quality ($$$) parts

spaz12Wondering...most of the guys use the Malossi OR kit but the what about the Stage6 OR kit? If it can handle drag racing it sure can handle 20hp for occasional driving right?

spaz12 Wondering...most of the guys use the Malossi OR kit but the what about the Stage6 OR kit? If it can handle drag racing it sure can handle 20hp for occasional driving right? They work great, but they have a coating on them that shreds belts. It'll wear away over time but again, tears up belts in the mean time.

There is only one man in this entire universe that can silence 1000 of super excited and hysteric people in 2 seconds. Why? Because he possesses "the force", a force called respect from each and every single fan. That man is a friggin genius! I am honored to live in the same era and it is a privilege to listen to his music every time I watch one of my favorite movies.
Sir John Williams here is to you! Cheers! *tackingalargesipofbeer*

I was looking at this following video which introduces the fastest bikes and their run videos. Well most of em are on more or less empty roads and usually a single driver but this following scene is just crazy. Not only one driver is going 300+ km/h but 3 of them. And not on a nice, long, empty highway/road but in a crowded road. Nuts!

If you want to see some crazy high speed runs on the road, check out some of the old fast bikes videos

aeroxbudYou crazy Brits! @15:40 THAT is super nuts! at 190mph (305km/h) he grazes the R1. One wrong move, reaction, hell a stupid rabbit or a bird at those speeds and you can kiss your life goodbye. @17:50 "the worst danger comes not at 200mph but at stand still." lol hilarious! @18:44 SUICIDE! That was very close. @42:36 "are you scared of the dark? You should be at 130mph" Here again... just nuts. All in all a nice road trip video with many never should ever do things in it. Wondering if those guys are still alive these days or did one or the other die at the Isle of Man or on a regular road?

All stock, all Yamaha.
And here I thought scooters are dead in Japan. Some people still come together from time to time to race. That race track isn't far from my place, maybe 1 hour drive in city traffic.

A lot good action going on. Not sure what bikes those are but they are definitely 2T. A very interesting scene starts at 4:25
