Yamaha also has dressed up models Suzuki has the power rangers. And Kawasaki just has a bunch of normal looking girls hanging around playing with their hair and on their phones.

Z3n posted:Any time you see the blinking light, that's either TC or ABS, I believe. 2ndclasscitizen had it right. The light you're seeing is the shift light, which they had set at 8k rpm for some reason. I only got the TC and ABS systems to engage a couple times on my brief ride of a S1000RR but they're definitely not on the top of the instrument cluster. They're either flanking the neutral light which is under the speedo display, or off to the bottom left of the tach, can't remember...

Initially it was just advice to keep it under there, but they've since updated the ECU to limit them to that, then at the 1000km service the limiter is removed by the dealer.

Yes I realize that, but watch the video again -- the shift light starts blinking at 8k rpm. You can set the light at whatever rpm you want within a reasonable range... not sure what the low end is but it doesn't surprise me that you could go down to 8k.

What throws me is that it stops blinking after awhile. "SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT...oh. Nevermind." and then when the RPMs drop back down it starts spazzing out again. What the hell.

Z3n posted:There's gotta be a story behind this. It recorded a naked Hayabusa going 250 MPH. As soon as the crowd heard the speed over the PA they lept to their feet to hoot-and-holler. While the revery was going on few noticed the almost silent black Hayabusa following it down the track. I just heard "what is that" and turned around to see a bike crossing the mile-marker at ludicrous speed. You can't even fathom what 261.5 MPH looks like until you see it. When he saw the score the rider was shaking. We asked him how he felt and all he could say was "I gotta go hug my wife" before taking off down the pits. http://www.speedsportlife.com/2010/03/28/ssl-event-coverage-spring-2010-texas-mile-photo-gallery/

drat that Texas mile event looks really cool.Sadly,here in England (health and safety capital of the world )we've got maybe 2 dedicated top speed tracks:1/4 mile @ santa pod dragway and bruntingthorpe airfield.Even on an abandoned airfield you'd probably still catch grief! ought ten posted:That rules.

No idea about the States ought ten,best bet would be to email them,they seem like pretty laid back dudes(they are Dutch  ,smoke and a pancake?)I cant wait for it to hit the England,i'm doing a 1000 miles a week and getting 58mpg out of my 900 hornet,I reckon you could get 90+ out of that smoker easy

Saw this Harley at lunch and had to take a picture. PLAYING DRESS UP IS FUN! Motorcycle parking at work gets a little crazy. These two have been having been giving each other a hard time for a couple of weeks. What's up with the bike cover on a beautiful day?

I'm going to guess accounts receivable. Also, I'll guess that the owner has never punched anyone in his life, even in jest, despite what his brake lever would lead you to believe.
