This bike slows me down

[Obliviontoad]

Are we saying, better to ride a slow bike fast, than a fast bike slow? I find my bike to be very planted, power more than adequate. and barring any ineptitude, very controlled. And if so asked for, there is the possibility that it will exceed its intended design expectations. A slight possibility of hooliganism. Not recommended, but certainly, a surprise to anyone who underestimates this machine. Ridden responsibly, it is a well behaved creature, pushed or modified, it can surprise.
