Talking Hayabusa

I got to ride my dad's hayabusa yesterday and i must say that thing is unfreakingbelievable! I never left first gear and even going from 2,000rpm to 4,000rpm is absolutley nuts.
Man o Man I cant wait to get to second gear

Those things are awesome. I've never rode one, but I can only imagine what they must be like compared to my 03 GSXR600.

Yeah, I got another ride today and the front end started to get light around 6,000rpm in first gear. Just to think that there is another 5,000rpms available is just nuts.
