Maybe you guys can help me figure out what bike this was,,,,,anyway here's the race:
I was coming home from Wal-Mart after picking up GTA4 (awesome game), and I stop at a red light in the right lane. There was a BMW in left lane next to me, but he didn't want any. Up ahead (at same intersection) about to turn right was a maroon (dark redish) and black sport bike that was trying to make his yellow light to turn before I got my green. He gives it a little too much gas coming around the right turn, and almost lost the back end. He gets into the left lane and regains control over the bike. :uh oh:
I get the green light and just put my pedal through the firewall :burnout:. I hooked because my tires were warm from driving around for over an hour in 76deg heat (perfect day and sunny). My Nitto Drag radials grab and I take off through the intersection. He was already ahead approx. 4 or so car lengths (length of intersection). He goes wide open throttle (loud aftermarket exhaust) immediately upon regaining control of his bike, so were both at full throttle now. I sloooowly pulled up to him until I was only about 1 car length back, and I had to shut down at around 120-130ish for traffic that was quickly approaching ahead. I guess overall, I pulled maybe 3 car lengths on him considering where we both started from. If we didn't slow down, I would have sloooowly pulled by him. We both slowed to about 70, and gave each other thumbs up:thumbsup:. I tried to get him to go again from a lower speed, but he just took off again.
So guys, help me out here with the possible make of the bike. It was a sport bike with a wide rear tire. The exhaust was center exit (below tail section), and there were 2 pipes that had triangular tips. The bike was dark reddish metallic (maybe maroon) and black. I didn't see any markings or stickers on the side, but maybe I just missed them. The exhaust sounded after market, because it was loud, and it appeared to be carbon-fiber wrapped. Any thoughts on what kind of bike this may have been? Honda CBR????:shrug: I always wondered how my car would do against a bike,,,,,,,,,,,,now I know. :rockon::rockon:
