Wish I would have got this one on tape but it was spontaneous

So on my way to work, Im turning left and the dyna is turning right onto the freeway onramp, which is no longer under construction, and is 2 lanes that merge into 1 lane just before the freeway
At the line, we both look at each other and punch it at around 15-20mph. Of course the motorcycle doesnt want to get stuck behind anyone entering the freeway.
By the time we hit the freeway i was going 130 and had 2 cars on him. He drove next to me and gave me the "hang loose" sign and he was out.
Right after that a Mazdaspeed 3 pulls up on me hard in the fast lane (must have seen the race), and I'm in the middle lane. He gets next to me and gives me the thumbs up, and I signal thank you. So I kick it into3rd, and signal to him pointing forward, and he says ok. He signals to me "let me go first and then you go". He was mostly stock, exhaust and maybe light bolt ons. I agree. Gapped him by a few cars.
THEN.... on the way home the next morning (this morning, I work graveyard) I run it twice with a Pontiac Solstice GXP on the freeway. Long story short I gapped him as well.
there is a 900rwhp RX here in town. its a 92 body style. it looks stockish on the outside. i was suprised he went to far with that engine considering a terbo ls fits on there.
Regardless of the Dyna glide's specs, that RX7 with a cammed, bolt-on LS1 in a ~2800lbs car has to be a quick little ride. Probably gets real nasty on spray.

i said lucky. Like freak bike. Ive seen couple 103 bikes run low 12s stock. But 11s was being generous
Stock, as in 103 stage III or IV added when bought brand new stock? Lol.... If those bikes you seen run low 12s were actually stock ~85hp / 95ft lbs 103's, those were some serious super freaks for sure. I can imagine stage III or IV 103 wide glides that put down 115-125whp run mid-high 11's for sure. But a truly factory stock 85hp 103 run even low 12s, that's crazy fast for them.

my 14 street bob made 76whp and 86ftq before any work. My 15 road glide made more than that.
but they was stock bikes. Now did they have work on them not shown. Who knows. Could had stage 1 air filter and tune or cams for all i know. But they still had stock exhaust. But who knows i didnt inspect super close. Except for the baggers running 10s that had 12k in the motor.

Approx. 10hp & tq loss to the tire, sounds spot on. Love me some road glide, will definitely be my next bike. One of my close friend's has a turbo'd 120R in his '14 road glide. It's tuned safe on very low boost because stock 11:1 CR engine is on very borrowed time, still makes ~150 whp. Has dished pistons and ready to rebuild it when it lets go. That's a pretty damn quick bagger.

my road glide with tune, big cams, big air, 2 into 1 exhaust made over 100whp.
seen one in daytona lay down over 350whp. It was a worked 120r with a turbo. Was crazy
