That's an H2 isn't it? It's got the US required side reflectors for road bikes.

How fecking quick is that thing off the line?

LOL....I called it in my head before he was done....it's in the low 8's.

I admire those guys for their pursuit of speed, blah, blah, blah.....but all that money just to save maybe 1.5sec??

He'll get it to be a 7 second bike.....which means barely under 8....but that's about it.

I met that guy at CVR....he comes across as pretty clean cut doesn't he?? That's 'cos he is....he's a true gent, and his knowledge of bikes runs the gamut....also pretty fecking fast on a regular track.

Sounds nice up the drag strip.

I understand why they extend the swing arm, but jeez it ruins the look of the bike. Still seemed to have no problem picking the front wheel up thou'.

**** me that's an ugly bike

[Perkles]

omg that swingarm is making my eyes bleed

I rode a few times with a lad on a Busa that was all turboed out and had a 10-inch cock, etc....he reckoned it wasn't that bad except on really tight stuff, where you just HAVE to commit....to be fair, that bike would go sideways & lay a strip in 3rd gear....it was feckin' viciously fast.....faster than I'll ever need.
