Speedy is plenty fast. Expecially with Arrow map and precat removed +mivv pipe, it hauls.

in traffic light gp the problem with superfast bikes is that they can do ~70 to 100mph with first gear. so at startup they are not really in the power zone, so in short accelerations speed can spank them. But after 100mph they are in the zone and the wind is starting to low speedy, so then speedy is ouf to the zone.

Yeah, we only ran about a quarter mile from about 5 mph, and he said he gave up at about 120 I don't think he realized that he would have passed me after about 30 more when I hit maximum velocity. Ah well I'll beat this to death every time we ride just to bust his balls. What are friends for?
