Hey! It's nice outside, Let's Ride

So...... you haven’t ridden with @Steel ???


We rode to Leakey together in the rain. I was on the stock Classic when I had just gotten it. She was horribly slow at that time. Probably not making over 110 hp. Not saying that a SD can't outrun the stocker, but I do have a slightly modified Roadster that should give it a little competition in a straight line. So far there's been a couple of GSXR 1000s, a BMW SS1000RR, and a V4 Panagali that have fallen behind on straight line runs. Betty runs ok for a big fat cruiser, with a fat old man riding her.
 
That was a long cold ride. I have improved a little since then. Perhaps we can get together and ride north from Orange on 87. We can day ride it or go north, stay and ride back.
 
Compared to my R3R with RamAir, header, crossover and cans... The SuperDuke eats it alive... more HP less weight.

Compared to a Carpenter R3... the power/weight ratio changes favor and I am sure to lose a straight line. If rider ability is equal, the SuperDuke should win the twisties... lighter weight, better suspension and more lean angle clearance.


Sure did scare myself when I power wheelied in 3rd @ about 100mph coming up beside you @1K9
Gonna throw the baffle in the exhaust as soon as I can get an appointment at the dyno to have her retuned. A little more back pressure should bring the HP & Torque up some more.
 


Ya, don't get me wrong. I wasn't refering to riding with you in Leakey in the rain on your stock bike. I was refering I know how crazy yo Coon @ss is and what you're capable of on that Carp!!!!
I know Anthony gots skills & that Dukee be bad A. But you crazy
 
YEP the KTM can beat a stock restricted ROCKET but its a POGOSTICK I owned onefor three weeks and sold it to a dealer they cost over $20000 I like my ROCKETS and my tuned ROADSTER left that DUKE in the dust very embarrasing for the super agressive streetfighters I also Raced a buddy with his BUSA and massacred him and he went out and bought a Rocket the next day STEEL knows him
 

"tuned ROADSTER left that DUKE in the dust" Naaaaaah Perhaps with Boost. Off the line for a few yards.

I would not trade my TwoTones for a Duke. It would take me a week to read the manual just to get it started.



What you see on the seat and tank is Velcro. He's wearing a special set of pants so he will not fly off the bike.

If you paid over 20K for a stock SuperDuke you are a fool.

I have less than that in a brand new '18 Super Duke R, Austin Racing exhaust, Rottweiler intake, Rottweiler SAS removal, Rottweiler emissions removal, PowerCommander V and the dyno tune.
For someone that is so into bikes for so long, if you couldn't adjust the fully adjustable, stock I might add, front and rear suspension to keep it from "pogoing" you are a moron.

Just another reason to ignore every bit of bung you spout.
 
Boy IMFASTOO you have not even been back a day or two and already pissing people off. Good to see you have not lost your touch
