          I had the 400cc version and that was enough at the time.

          750cc two stroke is like saying 1500cc on the same light frame. Mountains of power.

          Then buddy puts on pods to get a few percent more HPs?

          It's plated but this is a drag bike. The only "Safe place for that is on a strip.

          Awww, I rode the "big" 500/750cc kawi triples for 5 years and about 80K miles and they were not bad at all. There were only a couple of things one needed to remember. 1. EXACTLY what rpm the engine hit the powerband. 2. If you wanted to exceed 100 mph do it while going in a straight line with at least 10 feet of clear road on both sides of you because going in a straight line, making no steering changes, the frame flexed enough to cause the bike to swoop side to side in a 20 foot wide path and there was nothing you could do about that. LOL

          Well......sometimes there was rule 3. LOL Never let the engine come
          onto the powerband while coming around a high speed sweeper because when the afterburner kicked in, no matter how far over you were leaned, it would pick up the front wheel and wheelie you straight ahead. Vewy vewy interwesting weally. But mostly, if you just paid attention, you would be fine. Most fun bikes I've ever ridden.

                I know what you are saying Steve, but the question still remains:

                WHY?

                  Maybe he just scavenged parts from all his buddies that crashed and came up with the best bike out of the parts available.

                      After clicking about a half dozen links, the following can be found:

                      The Administration is seeking $50.7 billion in discretionary appropriations for the Department of Education, an increase of $4.5 billion over the comparable discretionary total provided in the 2010 appropriations act. The total increase includes up to $1 billion the Administration would request in a budget amendment only if Congress completes an ESEA reauthorization that includes the President's proposed reforms.

                      Let's hope some of that money makes it back to Denver, so the "cycle" can be broken in the event the ad writer has kids.

                        Buy something and then don't use it. Gee, sure wish I had that kind of money to burn.

                              Yikes! That is one huge wheel! Thing is, it only costs $2,200. Very cheap for a Hayabusa. But then again, would you ride that?
