I was hoping to crack 7-horses but the day was quite hot, hitting 90-something F.

Oh yeah, I dynoed and she put out a mean 6-HP despite the 90-F temperature.
thats cuz she took one look, giggled and swore scooters didnt go that fast!!!

Just teasing, but really, who wants to pull a guy on a scooter over?

On a slight but long hill, I got'er up to 61-MPH indicated with a full tuck. Damn, I thought that something was gonna fall off, she was vibrating so much! Every bump, every jolt were nerve wracking.

And Huntington Beach was so crowded that even the motorbikes were having problems with lane splitting. Not so with me and my scooter, we were weaving in and out like Valentino Rossi eating up Mugello.

I buzzed a dude on a ZX-14 and he couldn't believe it.

PCH or Beach Blvd? I've never seen traffic backed up that bad at HB.

It was on PCH. Not only the traffic was bad but the cops were out too. The meter maids were writing tickets on bikes that didn't park close enough to the curbs. There were Ducati 999 running around out there with the dry clutches all fucked out because of the traffic, slipping and sliding. One lone dude on an MV Agusta F4 with boiling over radiator.

More pics at the 2-strokes bike day. It was meant to celebrate two-strokers but a bunch of four-strokers came as well.

In truth, the mere TITLE of this thread makes me laugh (still) more than anything.
