Agreed. If you feel the uncontrollable need for speed, buy another bike. The America's great, stoplight to stoplight (without the fear of wheelies) and cruising the open road.
Fastest, ever, for me, was on a 2001 GSX-R 1000. I was in North Texas for some AF training and my buddy let me ride his new GSX-R. That thing was still pulling at 160mph, before I throttled back...NO THANK YOU!
His words of warning were simple: "Don't crack the throttle, unless you want to do a wheelie."
(I was vewy vewy careful..)
