From a dig what do bikes generally pull for a 60ft?
From a dig there's a lot more skill involved with launching as opposed to rolling on the throttle from a roll and hitting a few gears... Even though you're asking for a general number, I really couldn't give one to you. I've seen extreme lows and highs but I wouldn't want to give an average because it's probably wrong.

Even though you're in the same room as me, I'm going to say this anyway:

Get rid of the Neon and get a slow good looking toy and then a fun toy for play time.

From my quick looking and searching(30sec-1min) I'd say a 1.7 is average. I saw a few 1.5's but they seemed like really good drivers.

Pretty good. High 9's in the quarter is rediculous, gotta love the power to weight there. BTW, I was looking at the zx10 for a reference.

I take it you sold the 6 and bought a 10? Sorry, I don't know you or your friends really and I can only infer from what I see on here.

Nope. I still have the 636... Been riding a friends ZX10R for a week or so and I've been thinking about adding it to the stable but I'll never get rid of the 6. It's fast enough in a straight line to hang pretty well with the big dogs but it really shines in the curves.

It depends really.. There have been times where I'm riding 40 deep and other times where I prefer to ride by myself or with a smaller group.

I'm definitely down for a ride anytime! Just let me know!

How do you like the bike so far?

I love it man. I havent actually ridin' on the streets with a bike before but have taken some buddies bikes around parking lots. But it was like second nature when I bought it and actually went on the streets. Im not that "in tune" with everything on or about bikes yet. But its def. a lot of fun. Not as hard or scary as I thought. Im going to keep it stock for now since its an 08', plus I only have learner's and am not trying to attract anymore attention then need be. But its def. hard to keep it at the speed limit. I think I seen where you said you have a ZX10, my buddy has one, I think it may be an 05 also, the tanish color.
