I knew some huffers when I was younger.
They've already left this mortal coil

The radials remind me of Harley's failed attempt
to copyright their "unique sound." (i.e. noise)

Which brings up another issue. Don't new Harleys
come with exhaust pipes? Don't think I've seen
anything other than LOUD aftermarket/shadetree
pipes... but I digress.

Wouldn't know anything about that, Jess.

I rode Kawasaki...

K-750 (best street bike - maybe ever)
and 1500 Classic (better at carrying a passenger).

That 750 turned in an honest 140 mph on the highway.

Ssshhh! We are gonna get in trouble talking bikes
in here... although I saw a couple of bikes in here
with radial mills (7 jug and a **NINE**!? Geeez!)

Anyway... Owned one of the first model year Gold
Wings (before they turned 'em into garbage trucks).
It *scared* me! I loosened back on the throttle
at 155mph. Still had more throttle left. Bad part:
I was doing this AT NIGHT!? Talk about overdriving
your headlight! GULP! (Younger and dumber then)

Thanks John! I thot we'ze 'bout to get
b*tch-slapped for the bike talk. :-D

Always wanted to go out there and burn up
some salt - too old and brittle now.

Crewed for these Kawasaki folks at Bonneville

http://www.nancyandjon.org/records.html

Wow! That's right respectable.

What's Bonneville like?




Absolutely fantastic.

while we were there, had an F-16 come low & slow over the long course
looking around, then turn around and blast past , on afterburner , showing
off.


FWIW: Jon also was able to do 216mph on one pass, but could not make a
return run for record. on the same bike.

also had several folks fly in and land on the salt each day.

NOT MY PHOTOS..
