Lot of nerve, pal, making sense and stuff.
lol..... HOW DARE HE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i have to agree.
as far as Ricky Racers are concerned, they go way faster than i want or need to on the straights so it's no prob for me. if i'm behind the right Ricky Racer, i actually have a great ride.... they blast away ..... catch up to them by the end of the corner so they blast away again.... I never have to hit the brakes. works for me.

Plus they draw the attention of LEOs away from us who are not hammering it in the straights.

Well, this statement is obviously wrong....and anyone who believes it needs to learn to get the fuck outta the way and it doesn't matter if you are on a motorcycle or in a buffet line. Move your fat ass over. You are not the center of the universe you rude fuck.

This is my very favorite thing about the straight-line-blaster types. I recently went on a CBR-XX group get-together thing, and in the course of conversation I mentioned that I didn't think I'd exceeded 100mph one time on the street in the last 15+ years, and a guy dead-panned "why on Earth do you have a Blackbird then?"

The 5 south by El Toro Road has a two lane car pool. Two asshats were trickling down the road, side by side at 40 mph (traffic moving 70+). They moved far enough apart to drive a tank through so I proceeded. Wife looked at me and said I was fooking crazy.
Last I looked they were still back there doing 40 mph.
