        Supposedly tops at 145mph. That's just what he told me though. I don't plan on ever having to confirm that claim...I'd prefer to live past college...lol

                Cranking hard on the throttle of my kat and speed shifting will get me from 0-60 in about 3 seconds. Why the F anyone would need to accelerate any faster than that is beyond my comprehension, unless you are just dying to donate your organs.....

                        Simple answer "because we can". There's an old saying that "quick enough" or "fast enough" never is.

                          I agree with that.

                          I hated the ergonomics of my CBR 600 which is why I sold it. After 120 miles I hated myself and everything around me when I was on that bike.

                          I currently have a basically stock 1998 Kat 750 (14,xxx miles, Stage-I jet kit, NGK IX iridium spark plugs, and AMSOIL synthetic 10w40 oil, slight weight reduction) and my riding buddy has a bone stock 2009 R6. His bike is ~25% lbs. lighter then my Kat and has ~50% more power to boot.
                          I can launch way harder then he can and will stay ahead of him until ~100 MPH at which point he will pass me by and walk away from me at a faster rate at the speed increases.
                          From a roll, my Kat doesn't stand a chance.
                          He always gives me grief about my "sissy / girl / grandpa bike".
                          A few weeks ago we went for a ~500 mile ride. The closer we got to home the more he kept asking me if we could trade for a while. I felt great, the entire ride.
