There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

$55 seems reasonable.

Is it fun to ride on a straight line ? How fast is it by the end of the track ?

But 125mph is only 200kph ?... Surely the 9 can do more than that (is the track too short?)

Me finks Java not understand what the Drags is..

Drag racing is standing start and crossing the line 1/4 of a mile down the strip. 1/4 of a mile being about 402 meters...

Alot of stock bikes do about 10.5-11.5 in which case 180-240 is on the money i'd say.

madhatter was running 10.7 @ 130ish on his 97 9R, with a 1.7 60 foot time


the machine should definately be capable of a 10 second pass with a better 60 foot time and some fast shifts... and maybe a tune up :lol:
