I'd be curious to know if all those riders are still alive within a year's time! Not Smart! You wanna take your life in your hands, no problem, go to the track and go nuts. DON'T take other peoples lives in your hands! That said, would I like to have been one of those riders, hell yeah, but no.

Yes Yes I know, I said, I'm building a project YZF1070

Basement is done now, 850 finished and gone...
Gotta get the new siding up on the house.
Fixing the FZ1 up, cleaning up garage and then I might even begin
