I’ve had a Honda cbr and I’ve been into modified tuner cars my whole life. I have much more experience going fast in cars than on bikes. Everything becomes much bigger at higher speeds. You learn pretty quickly that when you’re doing 150 you don’t make jerky movements with the steering wheel. Tiny, tiny, fluid movements are amplified to become more. You need to anticipate understeer and be able to feel when the ass end is getting squirrelly or is breaking loose. You learn to use the engine compression as a brake assist when trying to slow that mass by 80mph in a 100 foot span. I’m guilty of doing obnoxious and deadly things on the highway in my various drift cars over the years and that’s more than enough for me. I had my bike up to 120 when I owned it and decides squiding out wasn’t something I wanted to risk. The shit I do in cars is more than enough to get the devil looking my way.

Interestingly enough I passed a cop on the highway doing 150 once. He was merging on from the on ramp. I stayed in it thinking I was fucked anyway but to my surprise he took the very next exit and got right back off the highway. There’s no way he didn’t notice me blow past him. The only thing I can think of is he got a priority call or he saw my speed and said fuck this my shift is about over and noped on out of running me down.
