SS > Katana SS > Katana
Edit: - happened in canada or mexico - cant remember.
first real race in the car since I put the 6-speed back in it. a couple bikes came charging through traffic to end up beside me at a red light, the guy kept revving his junk and i waited til right before we launched to give him a rev back and as soon as the lights hit he took off, (couldnt ride for ****) i had to ease into it because my tires are bald - i finally get hooked up and lay into it, nail 2nd and we're off, he's tucked under like he's a pro bike racer or some ****, and i get right beside him and when i hit 3rd i start pulling him and up to 100 or so i'm pullin on him hard and he's in my rear view!! i dunno what size bike it was could just tell by the body on it that it was a katana - probably a 600 or smaller. I was pumped. After the first run, he gets up beside me on a 45 or so roll and revs it and dumps so i do the same and pull him til he's at my rear fender then i slow down and hold up my "For Sale" sign to him and I see him start laughing - maybe i'll sale it now

They have 600cc and 750cc Katanas. From the outcome, I'd say it was probably a 600. Good kill. Those are some big heavy bikes... think of it as a Hayabusa with half the engine

Looking at their times...first half of the track isn't "too" bad...but seems like they fall on their face past that.

i knew kanatunas were poop but didnt realize by out running on in a car it was looked down upon. I thought it was cool myself, my first time out running a bike in a car.
