Owning an 1100 EVO I don't have that problem. Grin

I can smoke pretty much any car on the road easily.

so true. I got guys on r6, r1 asking me about top end etc. LOL

the fast and furious (cars) drivers ask me if it is faster than their suburu wrx etc LOL

I just crack up. This is a 620, the top end is crap. It ain't in the same league.

Falls on deaf ears anyhow.

LOL

Anymore I just laugh to myself and say that it's the fastest bike I've ever ridden. Wink

But I did lay down the law on a couple of kids in a WRX.

Buell is okay, I'm actually looking at the 1125R for a track bike possibly. I was a gas station, just finished and was paying, the attendant says" nice Harley", I just smiled and said "it is not a Harley." I wasn't offended, it was a compliment.

i love the sound. i have i monster 900 with shorty d&d pipes and i just cant get enough of hearing that engine roar. i dont ride one for a chick magnet, and always tell chicks wanting a ride that my bike is a one seater haha.
