nope

about 10 to 20 over, unless it's highly populated or a school zone or such.

Pssh, 10km, that's like .5 miles ain't it? Damn Canadians and their damned "metric system"! Go back to Canaidia!

nope, 1 mile is roughly equal to 1.6 km.

I was joking around, I have many friends in Canada and that's an on-going inside joke between us. I like to overexaggerate the conversion between money and distances/speed.

I don't feel the need to use an emoticon every time I post something, especially not the same one.

With my sarcastic attitude I'd be using :wink: every time. :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :frusty:

Not often do I stay under the speed limit. I've even been known to exceed the limit a time or two by 130 over. I try not to do that often, sometimes I just get carried away. :cry:

130 over? so that's probably around... 195mph.

what mods do you have on your busa?

i haven't tested yet how fast my bike can really go... so far, i've only pushed it up to 143mph.
