that little narrow road, with no shoulders, and the forrest overgrowing it looks kinda sketchy... if a deer ever jumped out.
Around here , deer, moose, bears, coyotes, and porcupines will turn a good day bad real fast.
I like this vid though

full throttle in the first 3 gears with my 12 = power wheelies. I have too shift or slow down.

Nice kill, Hibs.
I see you're working your way up the local ranks.
Keep moving up in speed, and for pete's sake... Stay off "da reb limida" next time. =)

Master, few things you may have missed...
That showroom stock Busa went 188mph, the same rider went 196mph on the Stage 1 ZX-14. That's an 8mph difference in speed. To put that little "8mph" in perspective... a 30 shot of nitrous is only good for "8mph" in the mile. Yes, it requires a lot of power to pick up just a little at these speeds. Also, keep in mind that the 196mph pass on the ZX-14 was done by a jockey, not the owner who rides the bike all the time. On top of that, it was the jockey's first and only pass on the bike that day. A few more passes and that bike would have been running 198+mph all day.
That Stage 1 ZX-14 has already done a GPS verified 200+mph in the standing mile with the same jockey.
The piped 09 Busa has carbon-fiber wheels, roughly $3800 mod, along with a few other bits. Not "just a piped Busa".
Either way, both that Busa and 14 ran a best of 196+mph that day..... nobody "killed" anyone.
Ironically enough, both those bikes are being built up by Ace Performance as we speak. 1440cc Busa vs 1464cc ZX-14
Should be a good comparison, but I've got a feeling the Busa's aero advantage and carbon fiber wheels will put it a notch ahead of the ZX-14's 24cc displacement advantage. Time will tell.
