Ducati Monster Forum

Just saw this on Slashdot.

BUB Racing's Chris Carr Breaks Speed Record (http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/499/4676/Motorcycle-Article/BUB-Racings-Chris-Carr-Breaks-Speed-Record.aspx)

And here's their page about the bike. (http://seven-streamliner.com/)

Cool...but I don't really consider that a "bike".  [moto]

Of course you don't.     [coffee]

looks like the huffy i used to ride when i was a kid.

There you go.  You pulled the trigger Bubba.

I'm pretty damn sure I saw a Buell Blast go a buck thirty on the salt.

I went there a few years ago with a bike that could (and did run 194). and could only hit 138.2 on the salt (That's haulin' ass there).

If you haven't been there you can't imagine the suffering (you &) the bike goes through.

Our local boy, Dave Campos, running the Harley Sportster Iron heads (2), held the world speed record for years.

I have ridden with him many times (He rides a blown Boss Hoss...Imagine that, Big make the beast with two backsin' surprise. Probably hard to get your rocks off at this point) and have seen him run at Bonneville & can't imagine what it feels like.

Yes! Of course! There must be something wrong with me because I have a different opinion then you. Please post up more useless jabs. The world needs more useless jabs.  [thumbsup]

The thread is "New motorcycle speed record"

No one asked "What does a motorcycle look like?" 

If you have a problem with that, take it up with them.

Seeing that you did say that you don't really consider that a "bike".
What do you consider a bike to be?  Maybe you could start a new thread.

Two wheels is a good start. 

Hey.....am I going to have to get in the sand box and kick sand in both your faces and take your toys and make you go play with the rubber ball ?

Dolph

Last time I checked, all you had to do is start walking toward the sand box.   [laugh]

But, back on topic would also work.

Or I'll just post my opinion and comment in the thread and you can post yours rather then look for an argument. I seriously can't believe you feel the need to start an argument about whether I think a 20' foot long fully enclosed streamliner is a bike or not. Obviously it qualifies for the record but IMFO it's not a "bike". Get over it.

Really?

Just stick to the topic.  Whats the big deal?  You're right. Someone posted something other than a red naked Ducati on the DMF.  But it's a cool story...And it's Chris Carr.   WTF?


I'll get over it  ;)   

I'll take this to PM.
