And it's very brave of you to stand up in public and admit that you're pleased with that
My 7 year old unmodified K12s still makes >170 at the rear wheel...
Just a friendly poke at Harley riders. 85% of all Harley's ever made are still on the road. The other 15% made it home...
Still - better than a car.

Though it would seem not better than a Vespa.

Admittedly the Harley is quite impressive when you consider torque rather than horsepower. I expect that's where your effort has gone as they still do pretty well on the quarter mile.
Cheers!
