I had it on my bike a few years ago, came up a slip road with a bmw behind me, unsure what model it was when I just mooned the throttle and went for it, was completely flat out on the bike when it came past me like I was stood still!

Bit of a naff motorbike if you're honest there's not any cars that can keep up a with a good motorbike..... A K7 Gsxr 100 will hit 100mph in 5.4 seconds .... A 20 years old ish Yamaha Thunderace will do 100mph in 6.5ish

Was on a 2000 zx6r, the bike wasn't in the best of health at the time!
How hard can it be?

On monday night I was having a play with an S3.........I'm under no illusion's, his car was faster than mine (more power & 4wd grip) but down the A road that we were travelling I believe he was more than a little frustrated that my 2.0TDI barge was making him work a lot harder than he was really comfortable with!
..................I thought it was GREAT!  :party:

It's my second......Brilliant cars.
This one is a little more sorted (springs, ARB's,superpro bushes and its 200ish bhp) so it's not slow by any means but it's no S3 killer that's for sure.
But it's super comfy and the stereo sounds good.  :driver:
