Hmmm, I must admit I do not know what that guy was riding - I did not see any brand on his fuel tank or anywhere else and I didn't ask, I was just happy I got a ride to home. It had four pipes, but it wasn't a sports bike. BTW, his first comment was he can beat V-Rod.
My 1200 was a fairly fast bike, but it was a scraper in the corners.......as for top end, I had her upwards of a buck twenty......but that was me doing that, lets see what she can do , thingy that pops into everyones mind.

Yeah. I would of asked for his phone an waited for the calvery on this one....
I would not get it on the back of another man's bike that he claims was going on hundred and 60 miles an hour but couldn't catch a sporty. I would rather pick up that sporty and carry it on my back 20 miles to LA then believe 160 mile an hour bike cannot catch a sporty with a flat tire But thanks for the story

Haha, you guys make me laugh. As usual on this forum, homophobia abounds! Seriously, what are you guys scared of? Maybe you're worried that sitting nuts to butts will cause your sub conscious to kick in, you'll start getting hard, and that your hidden desires/sexuality will finally be exposed!?
Regardless, that is about the only part of OP's story that I find believable. But, I'm the suspicious type...
I wanna' hear more about bitch riding 20 miles. What was that like?
Not sure about the bitch riding but the experience was horrible. The seat was not really meant for two up and the footpegs were too high for me. Then again, it saved me 20 miles walk and I am thankful.
Maybe some details of the story are a little confused, or left out. One would be, what bike the guy was riding?
Regardless, 160 mph on a sport bike is very believable.
Depends on what he was riding. A 600 will do almost 170, but once you hit past a certain point the speedometer stops flying through the numbers and starts crawling. I've been up to about 157 indicated and at that point you're starting to need a lot of room to get up that fast.
