yep, we had a ~60 year old man come in and buy a ZX10R. I've ridden with him and he is fast, very smooth.

He was in his sixties back then. He fucking terrorized the 250 class on a TZ 250. The guy was unbeatable.

He also had an AARP sticker on the back of his bike, just to add insult to injury. :lol:

This Doc Brown?

I was in my 40's when I got my bike, I'm 50 now. While I don't normally ride with anyone, the group of guys who I'd ride sportsbikes with are as old or older than me, and are all racers and track day instructors.

Dude here in Austin, Fox, is in his 50's, and he's sucked me into a few corners.. I dragged pegs on my old F2 following him, and he just makes it look effortless.
