Motorcycle Forum / General / Sportbikes / September 2004Why do Harleys always get in the way
I like to ride fast. Usually 10 or 100 over the speed limit. Every time I'm on a back road and cars get back up and no passing can be make, I find that it's a couple of guys doing less than the speed limit on there cool Harleys.  SignatureI'm Kurt, Bitch || I like to ride fast. Usually 10 or 100 over the speed limit. Every || time I'm on a back road and cars get back up and no passing can be || make, I find that it's a couple of guys doing less than the speed || limit on there cool Harleys. -- || I'm Kurt, Bitch Well grasshopper, the answer lies in this joke; two bulls, one old, one young, stood at top of a hill overlooking the herd. Young bull says "I'm gonna run down this hill and screw one of those heifers", Old bull says, "knock yourself out son, I'm gonna *walk* down the hill and screw 'em *all*". When you've attained wisdom you'll understand that the best part of a ride isn't in the arrival but in the "getting there".

Was it THAT long ago? Gee thanks for making me feel like a f.cking dinasour. But I AM wise, Master. I like to ride my bike the way it was meant to ride. FAST & FURIOUS I'm also wise enough to consider this a SPORTBIKE forum. I speculate YOU ride slow and DON'T ride a sportbike. Besides. If I want to take my time and bank 'em *all*, feel the breeze in my hair, listen to music in comfort, I'd drive a convertible. And if it rains, I'll roll up the window. Now, I just trailer the ZX10R to the fast & furious roads. f.ck that *walk* when you can RUN. SignatureGrasshopper > || I like to ride fast. Usually 10 or 100 over the speed limit.

If you are riding more than moderately fast on the public roads you are a moron...Why? Because you cannot predict what will be in the road in front of you soon enough to avoid it. The future for such riders is dim. If you want to ride real fast take it to the track. Phil Scott > > || I like to ride fast. Usually 10 or 100 over the speed limit.

But Master, I ride a 'real' sportbike, a Kawasaki ZX10R. My first gear doubles those Harley guys speed how the hell can I keep it down to their speed? Beside, I wish to 'engage' in conversation, but those Harleys are way to loud. I DO like to toy with them and get one to TRY to keep up. My next friendly argument with a Harley rider will be "I'll tell you what. I even keep it in first gear if you want to race to the next traffic light". Master. You just seem a little too boring for my thrill seeking lifestyle. I guess I'll be seeing you in my rear view mirror.

Umm, doubtful at best. The ZX10R will take the win against even some of the most hopped up hogs. Hell, my Buell S3T with just the race kit was only beaten by *ONE* Harley at the last dealer sponsored Dyno drag. And that was a 124" S&S powered confederate pushing 168HP at the rear wheel. Running 100 octane AV gas. While I don't agree with Kurt's style, I'll also confront a delusion like this straight on :) > > || -- > > || I'm Kurt, Bitch [quoted text clipped - 44 lines] > that was a 124" S&S powered confederate pushing 168HP at the rear wheel. > Running 100 octane AV gas.

But in a drag race, I'd have my money on > the Confederate... I have some friends and aquiantances who ride and own Harleys. We joke about this very subject. Horsepower & Torque. "What about the torque" they would say. A little about my background. I've always been into speed. I want the fastest cars, dirtbikes, jetskies and sportbikes. I started out years ago in motorcycles and drag racing. Always loved drag racing of any kind. Mechanically, I do most of my own work. In High School I took Auto Mechanic classes and later in a small tech school - Engine Rebuild. So I understand most engine technology but don't know it all. I've always been confussed with torque and horsepower, expecially in bikes. I also have a Ford truck and an Eclipse, I DO understand that torque is GREAT for the truck, but what about the car or bike? Torque is pure power and horsepower needs RPM. Kind of like a drill and a Dremel for cutting. Now, back to the comparison of the S&S with 168HP and my ZX10R. Two totally different machines. Let me ask you. Where does torque come in? I have nothing against ANY bike. I just love a good race and this is one race I'd love. Lane one: heavy, high torque twin. Lane two: light, high HP inline quad. BTW. My torque is 80 @ 10k. and have never been beat by any twin. My bike's best times in the quarter is high nines (stock). But, not by me. I don't drag race this bike. SignatureKurt >From: "Kurt" >BTW. My torque is 80 @ 10k. and have never been beat by any twin. My bike's >best times in the >quarter is high nines (stock). But, not by me. I don't drag race this bike. the old torque vs. horsepower argument is tired....torque is great for heavy vehicles, and for holeshots....torque is for getting moving till the HP takes over....in drag racing HP will win over massive torque everytime....(unless the distance is redicuously short)... ------------------- Chris Perdue "Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug!"

I wouldn't know, nor would I want to see how it faired :) Master JD, Okay. I guess I'll just come out of the closet. I'm really a top poster. I work in law enforcement and most of my riding buddies are in law enforcement. THAT may keep me outa cuffs and back seat cruisers. I am also a REAL sportbike rider with LOTS of experience. I can prove it if you ever want to go for a little Sunday ride. I'm over forty and had been riding DIRT, WATER, STREET and TRACK since I was in my teens. About my life span?

I *average* 15,000 miles a year on roads in the PNW that far surpass anything you're apt to find in Florida. Really, Bitch, riding in Florida is hardly a place to hone expert riding skills but if that's all you know who am I to tell you you're delusional. The closest thing to riding skills you get down there is dodging blue haired raisins doing 3 lane changes at 45mph without a signal on Rt 19.

I don't drag race or actually road race. I'm just a novice sportbike rider. Out for my own gratification. I had been playing with the idea of building a street legal dragbike, just to show those guys who extend their swingarms and polish their frames what a "REAL DRAGBIKE" is supposed to be. Then I may race it. I just love my bike too much to beat it. >> > I ride a 'real' sportbike, a Kawasaki ZX10R. >> > My first gear doubles those Harley guys speed how the hell [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > race it. > I just love my bike too much to beat it. The world is full of posers. I've been riding with Kurt for years and he's Alaway up front. Most of these guys who drop tons of cash into their bikes are nothing but posers or squids who have NO sportriding abilities. Wheelies and Endos bore me; throwing your knee down at a buck twenty, now that's priceless. > The world is full of posers. I've been riding with Kurt for years You have?

Those can be passed easily enough...if you have the skills of course... if not, and you just like to ride fast, but are not good enough to past a line of cruizer bikes... then you are riding way over your head and in the direction of becoming a statistic. If you think you are fast, take it to track and find out... you might be surprised when some young lady toasts you though the turns then leaves you in dust down the front straight. Those who like to brag about riding fast on the public roads in my experience ( 40+years now) are uusally really bad riders, and slow as well. One moron I met years ago was bragging how he rode 120 mph on his 350 honda,,,, so we went out for a ride and swing onto the freeway...I had it kicked up to 75 or so and couldnt see the the guy.... he was terrified hanging on for dear life and afraid to go any faster than 60 thats typical. Those who ride real well dont brag about it or trash other riders...thats a loosers characteristic. Phil Scott > Those who ride real well dont brag about it or trash other > riders...

The idiot quids keep a lot of bent metal being parted out on Ebay by the survivors and provides organs for those in need. Both contributions to society in thier own way. As you mature and gain real competence, you loose the need to look for someone to trash. Instead you understand that some people like riding slower than others...and all that is fine... and you learn how to pass anoither bike in the same lane safely...so you are never held up by slower riders.

Some people here are miss understanding the who point. There are careless "squid" who do all the stunts without helmets and gear. Then there are careful "sport riders" who ride their bike the way it's supposed to be ridden (isn't this a sport bike forum?) And about "trashing" others. Who's trashing? I just have a competitive nature, respect other and ride my own race. Yes. I get some passing me. Cool. I respect them too. Better rider than I. I'm just being straight foreword. I'm not the best, but I'm not the worst. I just try to do better. "some people like riding slower than other..." Are there any Harley riders here? >> You have a few dingbat kiddies with no judgement confused >> with those who ride real well.

I'm just a happy sportbike rider and love to ride with other sportbike riders who like to ride their sportbikes. Sorry some of you guys DON'T ride real sportbikes. And your telling stories of your cool OLD BIKER dad who runs straight "super loud" pipes just to make cool sounds. I friken HATE those loud pipes and would love slap one of those guys silly and give them an "up close and personal verbal lashing". They DON'T save lives. They piss people off. I also despise those OLD school Harley riders. I haven't counted, but the majority of your cool dad's type never wave back to us sportbike riders. Why? I usually wave to everyone. In fact - I even had some give me the finger for no reason. Years ago I've had them confront me to tell me about my "JAP" crap. Your dad sucks and THAT'S probably why you love 'im so much.

They DON'T save lives. They piss people off. Since you're in law enforcement and open pipes are illegal, why don't you just pull them over and ticket them for disturbing the peace? I personally despise open pipes and if I was a cop I'd be taking them down every chance I get just for the fun of it. And if they back talk me just once or even give me a dirty look, the tow truck will me coming to pick up their hog. After all, you and most of your friends are in law enforcement, right? You did just write the following a little while ago: >" I work in law enforcement and most of my riding buddies are in law >enforcement." Getting back at all those slow moving hardley guys with loud pipes that flip you off instead of waving at you would be poetic justice. Of course being "in law enforement" could mean you hose the vomit and fecal matter out of the cells every morning. Hopefully though, you're a law enforcement *officer* (and not a janitor at the local PD) that can take down those "loud pipes save lives" idiots and restore some peace to the community.

That's funny. It's hard to enforce a noise ordinance. I just love fuckin' with 'em. It's funny that sportbike riders are discrimated more than Harley riders.
