Notice when the speedo reads 172 mph my handle bars jerk hard right on me (may not look all that bad on the video, but trust me that much turn in your front wheel can cause a serious tank slapper at that speed). That's because when I came up over the small hill I floated my front wheel over it and I don't have a steering damper on my Kawasaki. I've never really needed one because this bike is so beautifully balanced. As you can see the 10 took that front end wobble in stride... still, it aint a good feeling when your handle bars jerk straight left OR right on ya when you're doing 150+ mph!!!
