I have a dry nitrous system with a set of 60HP jets that I'm waiting to install, but because of what can go wrong I'm taking my time to make sure it is done right.

Hey Ramy,

Hey guys I want to take back something I said a couple of posts ago.

THE RC51 IS SLOW AS DOGSH&T!!!

Last night I had a guy talking mad smack to me telling me that his RC51 would hand it to my Busa at any race under 140MPH. So me being the nice guy I am decided to let him show me what he is talking about. We did a 2nd gear roll race from 60MPH to about 150MPH (so there would be no excuse of "I missed a ****" or "I can't launch it's only because of the rider") Long story short, it was ugly. A CBR1000RR joined in on the race so there were three of us, but the RC51 was at least 10 bikes back, if not more. To add to it I also handed him his *** in the corners which was funny because he wouldn't shut up about how my bike was a big fat pig that can't take a corner.

Oh the look on his face was priceless.....didn't even want to talk to me after it was over.

Hmm...so I beat a crawler? lol

Oh and that's why it's stupid to talk smack. There's ALWAYS someone faster, and eventually, you will lose to something or someone. And even if you are the fastest on the street, humility is priceless...

fcrx88, I just wanted to let ya know I didn't flake on ya..I'm still 100% in this. I'm goin to get my car tuned by Steve Khan on the 10th of July, and I'll also have taken my exam by then, so I'll be straight. If we can do it a day or two afterward, that would be great, cuz I'm tryin to leave the country around the 15th - 18th... lemme know how those days look for you and your friends, and I'll get ya an exact time frame ASAP.

Man...I'm sorry to hear that. Hope you're alright. My boy just bought a GSXR1000, and coincidentally took a fall last week. Banged up his knee pretty good. If he's better by then, I'll see if he's game.

Deported? lol. Not quite. Just visiting Forget the climate...Driving in Egypt is largely regarded as the absolute worst in the world. You can't drive until you've survived Egyptian streets...

sorry to hear about your wreck man, I hope all works out o.k.

Last year I got hit while stopped at a red light. It took them three weeks to fix my bike. I got it back had it for six days and got hit again. TWICE IN UNDER TWO MONTHS!!!!!!!!!!! I almost gave up riding right then and there.

Umm...it's not the nicest thing to badmouth someone else''s country (I can do it cuz it's mine haha). It IS hot though...but it's no diff than Cali weather really. Not much rain, lots and lots of sun, most days are great, some days are REAL hot.

As for the flies, man, that's an 80's thing...kinda like the Florida swamps/wetlands. They fixed that prob long ago (w/ DDT mind you lol)

Just by that statement I can tell you haven't ever lived in Cali. Northern California gets a lot of rain, and our summers aren't quiet as hot compared to So Cal. Of course this has nothing to do with, "My FD vs. motorcycle, part 2 =-D."

No Jason, you should know I've never lived in Cali because you know me lol. Besides...so my statement applies to Southern Cali I got this from geography class btw. Something about Egypt and Cali having very similar weather, because they're around the same latitude...?

Edit: I meant rain in the summer btw. It rains a lot in Egypt during the winter, but like once every couple YEARS in the summer...

I'm just stating my opinion. I don't dislike Egyptions I just didn't like it when I was there. Not to mention plenty of people enjoy bashing the U.S., but that's their right and I can't say **** about it. It's like how I hate Maine and Alabama. When is the last time you were there? I was in Egypt last year and they sure as hell didn't cure the fly problem. Fast little *******.

The smiley face was supposed to show you shouldn't take me seriously I know you didn't mean anything by it.

I bash the US cuz we deserve it, and cuz I'm American too So I can haha. But yea...I haven't been to Egypt in a while. Used to go every summer, but the last time I went was 6 years ago Going this summer tho! What part were you in? Cairo? Cuz Cario sux lol. It's the 2nd largest city in the world IIRC (populationwise), w/ over 60 million people. It's too damn crowded and dirty. I'm from Alexandria...it's BEAUTIFUL. We got an AWESOME governor who's been undertaking a HUGE facelift for the entire city over the past few years. She's lookin very very nice now Hopefully the mosquito prob you're referring to is in Cairo and stays there, cuz I don't feel like dealing w/ that crap lol. They're fast, and they make you itch like CRAZY (foreign antigens...)
