This link from DS applies to us riding God-awful powerful sport bikes that can take you out in a split second. At least read the first post ... it applies to US too.

we all have to remember that the power to weight ratios on our bikes is INSANELY Deadly!!! I did notice something in some of the posts alot of folks probably don't realize. Age of the tires! Remember...the tire is the only thing between you, the road, and God! Don't skimp because, "That's too cheap to pass up!".

agreed, good post

keep in mind, many of our more powerfull bikes are running (driver's weight included) around 500 hp per ton (0.25 hp for each pound)

if you don't realize..... that is A LOT!!! of power

Good Post!

By the way - I am underpowered at only 0.195 hp per pound
