        Weak rocket

        They show 230 KMH and thought that was fast.... Just a brit bike with shaft drive and all the problems associated with it. Notice it jumps up when you accelerate and spins the tire. Not what you want when you want to accelerate out of a corner. Yammy solved this problem by making the engine run backwards compared to other bikes of this type......



        Here's a Yammy R1 going over 300 KMH and this guy has the balls to drive away from me fur sure.

                  Yah, I cought that slide or wobble in that curve, had it been me that would have been the end of the video unless they wanted to see me cleaning out my underwear in the ditch! Caught a little dried residue of cow on a curve last year with the same result, good thing I was only doing about 70 at the time

                    Well, when you think you can ride, you then see someone like Ghostrider and you realize you ride like you are peddling a bicycle.

                    Holy cow.

                      Someone should do the 18inch tire swap and the 750FD then see who has the fastest XS11.

                        fastest

                        I will still bet on the xs11 with a big bore kit, better carbs, maybe ported head and a XS750/850 Final drive would be the topender contender. Better be someone with their primary occupation being a jockey or life insurance salesman

                            Hi Ae7f, I still have been waiting to see if you got rid of that low end stumble from your zrx carbs. Are they the 11 or 1200 carbs?...
