    Saturday afternoon (a story)

    (Big post alert) So this actually happened a couple weeks ago when I was home for the weekend, but I see it as a testament to what an awesome motor the Vmax has.

    Greatest Kill Story Yet

    Yesterday I was coming home and just a few blocks away from my house on a main road when a tricked out sportster cuts me off turning right! The bike had an S&S motor in it and looked great. He guns it right in front of me and makes all kind of noise! I was pretty pissed and followed him...
