Re: Law makers are not riders.

Old guy preaching again. Most sport bikes are just a race bike with street legal lighting added. They are far too fast for the street in the hands of dare devils and new riders blah blah blah. Take it to the track and really have some fun while being legally allowed to go fast.
It isn't just sport bikes that are too fast though. It is the rider not the bike. Anyone with 400cc's under their butt can usually top 160km(100 mph) and this applies to scooters as well.
I am all for useable power. The kind that allows me to maintain my speed going up the side of a mountain or fighting a strong headwind. I'm all for the power that allows for safely passing that transport truck or bus but just plain speed type of power is not my bag. End of sermon.
