Riding with rice rockets yesterday

I guess I can't see the achievement in a big powerful bike beating a lesser machine. What does it prove? Now put 2 evenly matched bikes on a difficult road and win, then you have something to be proud of. Or is it really just a pissing contest? Sorry. Been "riding" for a few days with a bunch of guys loving their own bikes (Harley's, BMWs, Ducs, sporties) having a ball and only trying to impress themselves.

The ****** rockets are what they are. I have one too (04 Kawasaki ZRX1200r) About the only main difference, is the weight. Almost like a marathon runner challenging an overweight person to a sprint race. Hard to keep the front wheel down, on the Kawasaki, where as, the Rocket just squats and gets! I do love both of em. However, if I had to sell something, the Kawasaki would be second to go, behind my hardley. I'm keeping my Rocket thank you.
