Stupid is relative, riding at speeds in traffic when it only takes one unpredictable action to kill you or another, or both, and leave a number of folks with indelible trauma just should be avoided.

That said, I remember doing stupid speeds with an H1 that had drum brakes and bad steering head bearings......and a leaky fuel petcock that would occasionally catch fire!!

At little podunk Osceola Drag Strip, turbo Hayabusa's could reach 178 in the quarter mile. Scares me.

Too bad Osceola is now a part of history.
