Is there such a thing as being too throttle happy?

I think maybe only in rush hour because of all the cars that are usually in my freakin' way..................:jawdrop:

Jay,
Love the pic. I definitely think that pic is the perfect example! I feel sorry for the guy though.

on this bike, you'd have to be leaned over way far in first or second gear and crack the throttle hard, or the road would have to be wet/slick. otherwise, I think you're pretty safe as far as breaking traction w/ the back wheel goes w/o braking.

I was too throttle happy last night riding back from Vancouver.

Apparently our speedometers ARE accurate. Radar had me at 132 km/h in a 100 zone passing a tractor trailer, was spot on with my speedometer. LEO threatened to impound my bike for 'street racing'.... I was apologetic and he just cited me for speeding against a hwy sign instead. :surrender:
