How about this for a good comparison with the cars

As far as crashing, i binned it on the track at about 50mph a few weeks back, the bone came out through the skin in my wrist. The bike hit my foot and dislocated several bones and smashed one bone into 8 pieces. I've crashed at faster and slower speeds. Both have cause lesser injuries. Tuck and roll and hope nothing sticks out or gets in your way. Its just luck half the time if you walk away.

Me and a mate raced a 54 plate 911 carrera S, after 140 he was no where, he didn't look impressed when we went past!

I've never bin able to push the zxr (new bike to me only ridden it once, but my vfr400 bin up against a few things.

Z3 - abolished it to 100 then backed off (this was when it was only firing on 3 cylinders shocking oopsie)
Some chav girl in an astra tried to blow me off the lights (i was in the wrong lane to go straight on but it doesnt rly matter, as i proved:P)

An old porsche 911 (993) tried to take me on round a roundabout, went round his outside pulling off it, felt rly kl :smt003 lol
An MG ZR tried to overtake me on the motorway at around 90 ( :smt018 ), I was a little childish and sped up just enough so he couldnt get past :wanker then f**** off into the distance :smt003

normally ppl don't take on bikes, but its funny wen they do :smt001

Got owned by an audi R8 once, but i'm ok with it :smt019

I got sorely boned by a Murcielago the other day. I can live with that too, curiously.

if you come up against an obviously very quick car and fear you may lose.. just pop a wheelie. Instant win.

Yeah. There was also a 355FI. Man, that sounded nice as it made me eat it's dust.
I'd love to pop the front wheel up, but I've not even tried yet, let alone managed.
Ok, that's a lie, I've tried once or twice and failed horribly, jarring my arms and shoulders.

Hi,

The other month coming back from Enfield, I was cruising at 80 down the M25 in the fast lane when all of a sudden, I see this 06 plate scooby trying to bumper rub my rear wheel. Beep beep! flash! flash! :wanker

At this point my fiancé was about 3 min behind me and this scooby in her corsa. Anyway, I thought f*** it... I'll give it ago, so i just tucked in and gunned it right the way up to 14,000rpm doing 147mph! next thing I knew the scooby was a spec in my mirrors.

Got home only to hear from my fiancé saying "you remember you said you raced that scooby on the M25?" I said "yeah" she said "well I saw him on the hard shoulder with the bonnet open with thick white smoke pouring out from the engine whist he was on the phone to the AA maybe?" LOLOLOL

Gutted.

Regards

Rich
