Check out the insane bike I rode today :-)

FastDoc · 10-20-2010, 09:34 PM

A heavily modified 2006 Yamaha R1. :P

Sick stuff. 8)

Wonderful ride, but I'm too old. Even in good shape, at 46, the seating position was painful on my wrists. And on the male parts. That, at least, is not an age related issue.

Fun to ride though. For a little while I was about the fastest land based vehicle in the state.

I took it out on the runway.....
:P

Okay, I gotta ask... How fast did you wind it up?

Gorgeous bike by the way!

FastDoc · 10-20-2010, 09:48 PM

133 MPH.

On the runway.

I looked both ways for airplanes.

Don't try this at home, folks.

Doc's educated, but not bright.

It was cool though.

that is just pure sexyness right there.. i love the colors of it..

my neighbore she has a 10 yamaha r1 or maybe its an r6 (i think when she got it she told them not to put the decals on it, i havent gotten a good look at it yet tho.. just glances through the window while im drooling over it) white with black rims.. its clean, completely stock.. next time she is out i will go chat her up about and see if she doesnt mind if i take a few pictures of it..

Sure it is. Can't deny gravity.

Nice machine, but my wrists are required at my job. I need to be able to lift heavy things; it's my only skill.

Welding, brother, is an awesome skill.

Agreed, but I do that as a hobby only.

Never said I was skilled at welding. Turns out, you don't have to be a good welder, just a good grinder.

Very nice indeed. Always wanted to try one.

Thanks for sharing.
