I guess I'll have to head your way this summer with my 'busa. I'll show you what 188 is like. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif I don't even bother with Ducks. That's like racing a VW with a Porsche. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
Maybe I should just bring my Triumph with the sidecar. You can ride in the hack and feel what it's like not to have ANY control. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
"Wood Disease" is the often lethal and always debilitating disease that comes about when your sled contacts an immovable object, most often times a TREE. Symptoms of impending wood disease are: Too much liquid courage, no brains in your thumb and one-up-manship. Other symptoms include: Too much motor for your ability, too much speed on the trail and riding too fast at night. Cure: Get some sense before you have it knocked out of you by the impending wood disease. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Wood Disease applies to bikes too. Just change the name to Asphalt Disease.
I actually prefer going fast on a sled versus a bike. Most times on a sled you aren't dealing with a bunch of idiots in cars, trucks and other bikes waiting to pull in front of you, run red lights or worse. My sled can turn better, acellerate better and stop better than your bike. All it takes is the proper amount of CBN in the track and enough CBN on the skis. The T'cat will pull 0-70 in 2.5 seconds from a stop. My 'busa won't and your Duck don't even come close. The T'Cat will literally pull your forearms from the sockets.
On a sled, it's you, maybe a couple of buddies, the snow and the trees. If you get stupid, you can blame no one but yourself. On a bike, you have the "other" factor. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
