walked a bike yesterday
As I was going to get on 146 off Fairmont today a crotch rocket behind me starts revving it at me and I see him smiling in my rearview. So the thought goes through my head "Ahh **** it, I'm gonna loose but lets see how bad" so I am getting on the on ramp and sure enough he flyswatter by looking at me. I stomp the gas and the race is on. He gets caught behind some traffic as I'm catching up. He shoots out in front of me and I'm going about 100 at this point but he's in front and I had to let off the gas a little cause I'm steadily gaining on him.
Finally traffic clears and we are side by side. His bike is whining and I'm topping out at 5th. I shift into 6th and he can't keep up. I'm like holy **** are you serious. As my speedo is maxed out at 150 and about a car length between us he slows down A's do I. He comes up next to me gives me a friendly wave I do the same and he Burns off. Must have been a small bike. I realize that his top end was lacking where the long legs of 6th gear stretch but even around 80 I was gaining on him.

youd be amazed on what changing sprockets can do. My own trashed parking lot bike would top out at about 80, then again I had a sprocket the size of a dinner plate on my rear end.
Details of said bike?

No details on bike I've been looking to see if I see him again on my way to work with no luck. I bought mine as is and met the origional owner off here even though I got the car from a lot. He told me it has just basic bolt ons ie. Kooks LT, slp lm, lid. It pulls like a sob though. More mods to come

Must have been an old *** bike, my old f4i with full exhaust and a power commander would walk fbodys all day long with bolt ons and a decent cam. If they had more than that they would pull me up top once I got into fifth but I was on stock sprockets too, I can ride pretty good and only weigh 160.

yeah that was a either a old *** 600 or a slow as ***** bike or the shittiest rider ever or a combo of the above, a bolt on car will have no chance against a modern 600, how fast did you race to to need to shift into 6th cause a bolton car doenst top out 5th very quickly?

heck I beat a 250 the other day in the v lol. New 600's would walk the f-body unless he didn't know what he was doing. If it was old then yeah you could stand a chance.... all depends. but if it was a 250 you for sure walked him lol
Funny thing with the 250 is I was driving home in the z, and he wanted to race, so I destroyed him, and then ran into him again on the fry road to mexico and walked him again in the sedan, you'd think he would learn LOL

They are called sportbikes, not "crotch rockets". Im pretty sure the motorcycle driver let off way early. Probably a good thing since you stated he came up on traffic.
Also, no need to say "1300 Busa" because they all are 1300's in stock form.
