I have personally ridden my motorcycle over 155mph. I think that’s real fast. Faster than the fastest speed limit in the good ol’ USofA, which is 85mph. I’ve ridden my motorcycle faster than 155mph without making any modifications to it whatsoever. I bought it and the very first ride I took, leaving the dealer, I could have gone over 155mph. I waited a couple of weeks though.
I have read stories on teh internets of other people who own the same kind of motorcycle as I do going even faster. Over 185mph. That’s more than double the fastest speed limit in the good ol’ USofA.
Why in the world would a motorcycle manufacturer make a crotch rocket that goes so fucking fast? I mean, you can’t (legally) ride it that fast on public thoroughfares. How the fuck is this shit even legal?
My friend has a sports car. It goes real fast too. I have been in the passenger seat when he’s done 140mph, and he’s told me tales of going over 180mph. He couldn’t have done that the very first drive he took with it though. First he had to get it “chipped,” which took a few minutes, and a few dollars. Before he had it chipped, it could go only about 100mph, maybe a little more, because the computer in the car told it that it couldn’t go any faster. But in reality it was designed, and built, to go a lot faster. The computer just needed “convincing” is all. A little confidence booster.

Going fast is dangerous. The faster you go, the less room for error you have. The faster you go, the more dangerous it gets. The faster you go, the greater the consequences if you fuck up.
Consequences can include people other than yourself.
I have a question:
If I choose to go real fast, so fast that I break the law, not just a little bit, but so fast that I break the law more than double in one go… If I choose to go so fucking fast and I fuck up, and I hurt or even kill myself and/or somebody else when I fuck up, I want to know:
Should the company that made the thing that I fucked up with be held liable for how I used it?
