yeah tell me about it.
I've been hit once (fortunately at low speed) and had too many near misses to keep count. But I still love to ride, I guess it's one of those calculated risks I'm prepared to take. But it's not so bad now I mainly ride on the country roads, rather than in traffic where everyone seems to aim for ya

nice ride Ben, a few of us now have crotch rockets - they are a load of fun, just got to practice a lot more restraint on a bike as unlike 4 wheels, you don't often get second chances

some of the latest 1000cc jap sportsbikes are getting into the high 9's now, that's from factory. Although when it comes to bikes, rider ability and their ability to keep the front wheel on the ground has more to do with it. My bike from factory is good for a 10.2, but with me riding, I'd be lucky to do a 12 - it scares the crap out of me lol

lol same, uncles duke 998 is capable of a high 9 low 10, but with me riding it'll be a high 11 mid 12, the front wheel on that things spends half its time in the air haha
