I find burnouts to be a useless waste of perfectly good tires. Stupid and expensive.....

That's why I only burn off the ones that are shot.......

A friend/neighbor has a 4" over swing arm on his Hayabusa. It appears that he did it so he could slam the throttle wide open, bounce off the rev limiter, and not worry about going over backwards. We were riding together last year and I was leading. I took a sharp right curve on my Guzzi. He got to the curve, gave up and went straight into the woods. Luckily there was a footpath with an open gate for him to slow down on. It was quite a funny scene, since he didn't get hurt. To me, it seems like a huge waste of the excellent handling of the 'Busa. To him it's an improvement. Go figure.

I did have a H2-B for a while, and it just didn't turn like the early H2's. The ZX10r has a 1395mm w/b, that thing turns. To each his own I guess, for me it's the corners and handling.....

I personally like the look of the longer swingarms on certain bikes !!!! I know about the handling issues but for something different I plan on putting a 74/75 H2 swingarm on the 73 H2 that I am starting to build !!!
