#1 To get an RC51 up to 200 mph, they say, the owner would have to change the motorcycleâs transmission, fuel injectors and gears â and might have to add either a supercharger or pump nitrous oxide or methane into the fuel system.

That would be plain crazy! Only someone who owned a bike capable of 185 would even consider it.

#2 That would be plain crazy!

Considering how, at 205 MPH, a vehicle travels some 100 FEET in the time it takes to blink, sanity isn't even part of the discussion. Running into a jackrabbit, prairie dog, squirrel or even just a littered beer bottle means taking the dirt nap. That is, if they find all of the pieces.

Tilley is a suicidal moron who should hereafter find it quite difficult to obtain basic liability vehicle insurance for anything below the high four-figure range.
