I guess the 84 year old man that brought his bike to the track should have been told he exceeded some magical age limit.
I best tell Schwantz he can't come out and ride either... Fuck that.

Hmmm... took the MSF and bought my baby Ninja 2 years ago just after turning 43. I guess I missed the too old memo, too.

Ever heard the saying...You don't quit playing because you get old, you get old because you quit playing!
Buy what you want, not what someone else wants. I'll be 43 this year, going from a VTX to an FZ1 and when I can afford a second bike it'll be an R6 or a supermoto to hooligan on

I used to pit next to a guy named Doc Brown when I raced vintage bikes.
He was in his sixties back then. He fucking terrorized the 250 class on a TZ 250. The guy was unbeatable. He also had an AARP sticker on the back of his bike, just to add insult to injury. ![]() JC

yeah I saw a comparison between non abs and the abs version... over like 16 attempts the ABS version stopped 20' shorter the first... 17' the second... and on... wasn't until the last stop... did they match the abs version.... and that was with a 20 year riding veteran... the new biker never came with in 5' of the abs version after 20 trys.
and every one of them said it didn't kick in until the last possible moment... so they didn't notice it otherwise. can't remember where the fuck I saw it though... I think it might have been one of the British mags. |
