:shock:
Those have to be the most impressive acceleration specs I've seen.

I've seen vids of drag bikes before, and they're always insane to watch. Those drivers must have balls the size of a house

Too bad there were no on-track stationary shots to get a true sense of how fast those bikes are.

I would love to take one of those puppies for a spin.
