Beemer Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Sure they can, I love the sound of an inline-4 when it has a good can on it. I spilled a little coffee on my chin when the commentator said these bikes can reach speeds UP TO 150 mph.; knowing stock bikes these days regularly, go well over that.

r1limited Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Nothing like a 4 banger hitting the cam. The R1 turns into a Chupacabra/Tasmanian Devil Evil Beast at 10.5 to 12 “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.” --Thomas Jefferson quoting Cesare Beccaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faffi Posted November 11, 2017 Author Share Posted November 11, 2017 Beemer, I believe 150 was meant for Laguna Seca. It was also said somewhere in the video that they did 170 tops speed, which is about right. That is very fast without a fairing, you do feel the pressure.

I understood him, I took what he said out of context to make a funny but apparently I didn't make it obvious that I was doing so or were we on different wave lengths? Anyway, thanks for the video, it was cool. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1limited Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 ^^^^ Some peepoles kids!!! Man sumptimes ist impossible to get a laugh. Besides 170 at laguna on a SBK well only da aliens can achieve such blithe as mere mortals (Back of da packers) could only have wet dreams over such feats. The odd thng is of all the tracks I have been on up and down commifornia, I have never been on Laguna, but I have watched many, many, many races on them hills over the years..... Next year will be the game changer, next year twice I hopes...... but in a cage “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.” --Thomas Jefferson quoting Cesare Beccaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 In anyone's defense, without seeing that little twinkle in someones eye, that little grin in the corner of a mouth, it is sometimes hard to know when someone is joking about something unless they outright say they are making a joke.
