WOW is right... but that doesn't look like a "conventional" motorcycle to me...

Maybe just a little body work done! I like the form fitted slots for his legs and feet!

Almost as fast as my second gen. I mean just a little off the pace. But he is nearly there.

I wonder, is there even a point in wearing a helmet and leathers at those speeds? You're tempting fate anyways, might as well do it in a speedo or a chicken costume.

Chicken costume wouldn't be aerodynamic and would slow him down with the drag. Speedo would be the way to go !

I'd be real careful about the Speedo in this heat. You can end up with a real nasty heat rash in places you shouldn't scratch in public.

Are birds not aerodynamic?

Remember Wally Free and the Vincent Land Speed Record:)

Can someone please define "conventional". Not sure you can pick up that specific model down at your local Suzuki shop. I guess now in our day of enlightenment and liberal viewpoint you can define conventional any way you like.

Pppfffttt!

I was going faster than that on my stock 09 RSV last week.
