I've thrown a bike down a couple of times at over 120 mph.......on the track, never on the street. If you want to go fast. On the track, never on the street. On the street. I'll only do about 7/10's. I keep the other 3/10's to save my azz if need be.
This multiplied by a million.....Respect the machine and understand what's going on around you and you'll be fine(leadfoot). On a side note I'm trying to get my first set of leathers this year so I can spend a lot more time on the track. As well as finally building a dedicated track bike.
