Dan, your going 110, but get passed by an idiot?
At what speed does one become a idiot?
From what I gather by most posts I read, one becomes an idiot ONCE they exceed the writers speed.
Whats more important than knowing your speedo's accuracy, is knowing the satisfaction of "topping it out", what ever that may be.
I allways "top out" everything I own! Just gotta know! My 68 El camino burried the 120 speedo by a large amount. My 3cyl.,2-stroke H1'S (have had four) all topped out around 125. My 97 GMC 1500 pickup had an electronic governor that shut it down @ 100.(I has pis---).
Seems that if you'll do 60, an idiot is anyone who goes 60-up. If you do 120,An idiot goes 120-up.
My name is Erle, and I'm an idiot.
I've been on country roads, on my Bonny, topped out, with no helmet none the less(helmets not required by law in Florida), and felt totally comfortable! yes it's stupid, of course anything can go wrong, but I was in my comfort zone.
MANY think anyone who rides a motorcycle is an idiot, do to the risk factor/consequence of a mishap. Of course,all bike riders will debate/defend that issue, AS LONG as the biker goes THEIR speed or less.
And thanks, those of you idiots that think theres nothing wrong with my Bonny going top end.Not all the time of course, but usually at least once a month.
At least the 120+'ers can relate!
