I'm riding to work yesterday, lane splitting on our N1 highway, 3 or 4 lanes between home and work. It's a gorgeous morning, sun nice and bright, air crisp and cool, and i'm just taking a leasurely ride to work.
The traffic is free flowing, and i'm running a bit faster than them, working my way between them. I look down at the dash, and everything is going great. 8000 ish RPM, temp 3 bars, tank full, speed 146kmh.
I've got a smaller back sprocket (2 teeth) so my speedo under reads. Add 10km/h and you're just around 160 ...km/h, which is 100 miles an hour. In traffic, lanesplitting, safely. I wasn't even running hard.
Who else this this damned lucky? :rockon:
