On my way home yesterday at an intersection I normally turn left at...I see a couple sport bikes sitting in the right lane with the left lane open and a wide open road up ahead....so I aint gonna let an opportunity like that pass....I hurry up and get along side them before the green. There's a Toyota Tacoma behind them with front row seats to the action about to unfold.

One of the bikes was a yellow Honda 900RR and the other one was...I dunno....let's just call it the slow one...
I caught their attention with my quick stop so as soon as the green was there....they wanna go and so do I.
So off we go!
The 900RR got out to my front bumper while my tires spun and the slow one stayed on my door...but as soon as I hooked....the slow one got walked and gave up while I slowly crept up on and started to pass the 900RR.
As soon as he was behind my door, he let off knowing he was getting walked and so did I. We had gone about an 1/8th at this point.
As we got back down to safe speeds, he came along side me and was honking his horn, thumb-upping me and hollerin' "YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!!!"
I was just laughing and gave him a hang loose sign back.
At the next red light I'm turning left now and they're gonna go straight.
The 900RR guy comes up to my door and he's all excited....the slow bike is back there somewhere still...
Him: Holy crap that thing is fast!
Me: Yup! [laughing]
Him: I used to be a drag race photographer and I should know....you just don't race these things [pointing at my GN], you just don't try to race them! [laughing]
Me: Ya I'm loving it...especially this new motor.
His buddy on the slow bike finally rolls up and is completely freaked out...
Slow bike: You totally took my be surprise....I can't believe how easy that was for you.
900RR: And I'm sure it's totally stock right?
Me: Yup...totally bone stock except for this boost gauge.
All laughing...
Tacoma pulls up in the far lane and the driver is just shaking his head and looking at the GN.
I think he was with the two guys on the bikes cuz they started hamming it up with him about what just went down....he was speachless and still just staring
at the GN...
My light turned green so I told them to be safe and went my way.
