Re: CVO Destroyer: Pete Learns To Leave His Mark
So is that thing just louder than a mofo in person?

Re: How about more 0-60 and 1/4 mile runs
for regular bikes off the showroom floor. I'd like to see that anyway, for every bike reviewed, whether a Suzuki Habasura (spelling) or a Kawasaki KLR 650. Its just a real interesting bit of information. I'd venture that acceleration is more important than top-end to most riders anyway, in terms of fun-factor.
And it would be interesting to see how your various reviewers compare at the track on the same bike. |

Re: How about more 0-60 and 1/4 mile runs
The Hayabusa (A falcon in Japan) is the world's fastest bird. Capable of reacing 202MPH in a dive, when swooping down on its prey.
I'm even faster. Pete's faster Still.

Re: CVO Destroyer: Pete Learns To Leave His Mark
You really are going after Pete. I forget, is it 20lbs per tenth of a second?

Re: How about more 0-60 and 1/4 mile runs
How do they know that? Did they put a little birdie speedometer on it?
Maybe it was parallax error. |

Weighty Issues
10Lbs = 1 horsepower is the ballpark figure my dad used to use when talking about the early days of Superbike racing.
Now I thinks it's often said that 10Lbs - 1/10th of a second in laptime. Of course it's all BS. because there are way too many variables to ever have one equation be accurate when applied to all situations. I just like to think that people would be calling me Valentino if I weighed 135Lbs  -Sean
