I bet DGK could kick Jay Leno's ass on his turbo Hyabusa. DGK actually knows what he's doing. He rides in heavy traffic at 300+ km/h (his digital speedometer stops; probably legal reasons) and does wheelies at over 200 km/h. Man Jay Leno's got the money; DGK brings the skills. Anyone else watch the DGK DVD?

Sorry but if your riding through heavy traffic at 180 mph+ then your just an asshole. I read that Jay Leno said he bought the bike to be a part of the "more money then brains club". haha, if I was him I would have bought it just for the sound.

Holy shit. I though that that they had just made up that bike for the movie (torque...which sucked by the way.) That truly is ludicrous.

Jay Leno + motorcycle + tv show = very unstable contract.
I wonder what his insurance is like.
Gigdy who the hell is that body builder in your signature? Those muscles are terribly vomit inducing.
