Performance Video

Here is a performance video for those interested. 0 to 160kph (100mph) in 9.8 seconds. I have read somewhere that the speedo is optimistically high almost 10% but then again aren't all bikes. I'm not sure if its posted somewhere else here.

Anyone know what he said?

I think he just kept saying "awesome bike, awesome bike" over and over again. R

That makes sense to me. Maybe a "Very" thrown in ever now and then.

Yeah, I missed that. My Italian ? is weak. Well, so is my English.

That sure is a nice looking motorsickel. I'm gonna have to have me one of those. R

I'd just skip thru to the 1'37" point.

only good for 121 mph, how can anyone live with that.

Disappointing, but I think I can live with it! Maybe with a little less power/speed, my tires will last a little longer than they do on the FJR!

Yeah, guess we'll have to poke along at 120. Been quite a while since I was held back to that speed .... right !!! Jeeze. I dunno about you guys, but if I ever see 120, I'm gonna need some fresh shorts. I've kissed 100 a couple times but didn't enjoy it. R

I had that translated, he said "the blue ones are teh fastest"

There is no word for "black" in Lithuanian. If you listen carefully, the nasal quality that he has applied to the word actually means "dark blue", which in Lithuanian, interprets to Black.

It's okay .... I wouldn't expect most people to know this. R

Only the color blind ones..............

Ironically, it is the lack of color that makes black so colorful. R
