Preach it, brother.

I think that Ducati looks hideous.

Give a Nighttrain if I wanted a cruiser. Yummy.

nobody said anything like that at all. gas made a blanket statement and got called on it, had he said it was fast for what it was there wouldnt have been any argument

i got this old pile of crap for around $250 and it was one of the most stupid fun bikes ive ever ridden. you can ask gixxer1k, even at 20hp or so i could still get a power wheelie out of it

I really don't agree with that. It wasn't a blanket statement. It may not be top end fast, but I bet a proper Nightrod will take allot of sportbikes, especially off the line. I stand behind my statement, so I was not "called out" on it.

Crazy2sin's nightrod is not stock, its from there I got the low 11 figure. Yes he can dump it off the line and is probably one of the most skilled people I know in stoplight drags. Still doesn't make it 600 fast

Really you think so from light to light (being you said that)??

I don't own one so I can't even provide physicall proof or race a 600 from here. The one I rode was insane and I would have gave my left testicle to take home.

If Uma was more comfortable on the vrod, I'd trade the nightster in for one.

You know 1130cc.com has a stickied thread with stock 1/4 times for various mfrs as a guide of what not to fuck with?

It can't even take my overgrown dirtbike much less a supersport. Not from a standing start, not from a roll-on.

I haven't heard of the site much less the sticky.

If you say so. I say differently.

I will only concede that the one I rode may have had more done to it than I know of.
