I ran a gixxer 750 today, [vid] I took a cruise down towards highway 11 looking for some bikes to play with. I found this gixxer 750 at a gas station, he said he would be willing to give me a run. He was quite surprised after the run.

question? Why didn't the rider look like he was "racing"...at all? Hell, I tuck at lower speeds than I am sure you all were running. Not calling BS...just something I noticed. Instantly.

damn you guys are really...hmm dunno what word to use, lol, "doubting". I'd say he was trying, I don't see how you can pull the wheel twice without throwing in some effort. And why is a supercharged vette beating a 750 so hard to believe?

Dosn't take much to lift the front wheel from a 40mph roll, not bashing but anyone who doesn't tuck during a race on a bike is a 'tard. I think his bike should be repo-ed and given to me
Awesome corvette though, my v-6 turd would have about as much of a chance as a tricycle.

yes you 2 ran, no doubt about that, but he didnt have a clue how to keep the bike on the ground, allowing him to give it more throttle, allowing him to go faster, also keeping aerodynamics, yes you did great against him, and i dont doubt your cars potential is close to the bikes, but he SUCKED at riding
