    Maybe I won't be welcome here after saying this, but I'm gonna say it - that was horse crap. You passed on a double yellow line, hit a top speed of 90 and did blind curves at over 50. All on a public road with oncoming traffic. If I lived on that road and my wife and daughter drove it I'd want your butt thrown in jail. You want to race? Do it on the track where the only life you'll endanger is your own.

    I love people who go to moto forums to say "Stop riding beyond my level of ability!" Makes your kitty hurt, does it?

    Sell. Your. Bike. Enjoy. Your. Minivan.

    Or just ride your own ride.

    And I love people who go to forums and brag how they broke the law on a motorcycle and mock anyone who disagrees with their narcissistic play time . Wow, that's really hard to do. Riding like this is on a public road is stupid and egotistical, and it threatens the lives of those who don't give a crap how fast we can ride. But that's cool with you. I am absolutely for anyone doing that kind of riding all they want, it's a blast - on a closed course or the track.

    Looks like a great time! In the rider's defense they're out in empty roads with barely any intersections at all. I've seen worse behavior from squidly riders, some even split lanes with cars going the other direction. It's not like those "hooligans" are doing wheelies in rush hour traffic. Take a chill pill, people!

    Nice ninja editing, I see that you thought better of those last six words.

    90 is too fast? That if nothing else makes you wrong.

    Why do you own a VFR, what do you do with it?

    The "ninja editing" is because even though I meant everything I've said, on second thought I didn't want to be a hard case about it. People can agree or not. That's what forums are for. I've pitched in my 2 cents. I believe I'm right. If you don't, OK, enjoy your rides and be well.

    who's bragging?

    I never crossed the center line and never do. The guys we were following waved us around but should have waited for a safer spot, the speed limit on that road is 45, so what if i did 50 thru the corner. The guy shooting the video had never been on that road before and was trying not to fall to far behind hence the 90mph you supposedly witnessed on his UNCORRECTED speedo. I consider myself to be an extremley safe rider and i ride the PACE. I rarley if ever exceed 80mph. ANYWHERE. And i don't drag my knees either.

    Looked like fun to me! One could always be safer but you gotta weigh the benefit versus risk thing and other mitigating circumstances.
