That's my usual transportation, right there. It's the one thing in my life that makes me truly happy anymore. I could be facing execution the next day, but if I climb on my bike, all is forgotten and the world is a wonderful place.

It's ridiculously easy to get going ridiculously fast in a ridiculously short amount of time on that motorcycle. And I haven't even really opened it up. I'm scared to... when you can go 70 MPH in first gear and still have 1500 RPM until redline?

The engine puts out around 124HP (which is huge for a bike), and it weighs around 375 pounds wet. So, you do the math. That's a power-to-weight ratio of 1:3, which blows away anything (and I mean _anything_) with four wheels. It really is a bit frightening.
