so you are a devil and like to race? hope it is done on track-days where your devil side ins un-leashed, keep us updated
don't you think a member who is active on xBhp since '04 shall have an idea whether SS or BB has been done and been successful?on which motorcycles and what the avg. speed is?
the avg speed was ~75kmph
Back to topic--
Ripping and doing 130kmph is pretty much possible on a P-220, no one argued that, what me and ravi were probably saying that on Indian motorcycles maintaining an avg speed of more than 100kmph for extended periods is not safe, citing the way Indian motorcycles are kitted and the deplorable condition in which the traffic moves,
as far as choosing motorcycles, go, i myself would chose a P-220 over a ZMR

i am proud to say that i have emerged myself as a more cautious,more sensible and more mature rider since my orkut days only cause of xbhp..reading every members incidents,their mottos and diligence inspired me to be a safe rider with a full knowledge of riding(still learning)...if you can see,i am just loggin orkut just to upload my pics and as a mod for the largest fz community...however,orkut is silly and immature who just provacate and shout at others "my bike is best my bike is best".....am just a tourer now...forget about the importance of which bike am touring,i just wanna conquer all places by marking my territory on any bike...
and yes,as i have said to ravi before...certain people have their own idea of perception regarding the "safe" speed zone....i have my own...we cannot predict that riding at 10 or 50 or 100 may or may not lead to a disastrous incident which i may have to regret for the remaining of my life...but i love to live in my limits and explore newer ones...in short as i said before,a bull rider thinks 60kmph is the best and safest,another thinks its 100kmph,at the end of it,depends on the tactics,skills and sensibility of the rider...
i did not do any SS or BB..and i really dont see any sense in noting the average speed in this..all one has to see is the time limit,number of kilometers...the speed part plays its own(IMO)....and yes,what you have said about engine or parts life getting minimized is true,hence that rubber part incident on my 220...but the thrill or excitement can never be replaced dude..
i have seen enough accidents,deaths,lost of loved ones and friends in road accidents so rest assured that you can only see me below 60kmph with my ipod swaying gently to the road curves...the only playing area is a highway and also rest assured for that is i had been capable in knowing my limits all these years and kilometers(touchwood)
regarding the member from old years: i respect the older members...but that doesnt mean i have to follow blindly cause i respect myself first.when i said i have done so and so kms in so and so time,it mean si am just sharing my happiness and info(if any)..old members,new members...doesnt hurt anyone to regain knowledge when its presented correctly.you have directly offended me and my personal accomplishment(for me its a happy accomplishment) by saying i am faking it and i couldnt have done it.hence the outburst..and for this i apologize from my side....
and if you see my profile in Xbhp, you will see that i prefer zma than 220 cause we all know the reason.i am just being fair to whatever fairness deserves..peace
