Well i was riding on the 680 SB headed back home from milpitas... just splitting lanes as usual. [doing 90 is my crusing speed] i wasnt really mindin' my own buisness when I came up on the M5.
I just saw the driver talking to I guess his girlfriend. she kinda looked back toward my bike as I was passing; seeing this i look back and nod and think nothing of it. <mistake number one!
as I was speeding off I notice the driver drop his head and grip the wheel... fuuuukkkk.... then in my mirrors i see two 8000K bulbs speeding up on my left! oh shit its on!
mind you this is a rolling start at what i beleave to be 80 (hey i slowed down to get a better look ) i drop it down two gears to 4thand drop the clutch some where around 11,000rpm my front wheel lifts about a foot[95mph] then returns to the ground slowly [115mph]. then we enter the first corner going over berryessa[100mph]
at this point the M5 is all over the place passing cars quick as shit, just as fast as i can split. [120mph]<mistake number 2!! (its got wider tires than you dip shit)
comming out of the corner i am about 4 car lengths and fading... so i drop it down again to 5th and shoot off [155mph] by now the pack of cars has dissappered behind us. FAQ!! this is when i realised the big corner is commimg up! and to make matters worse these are brand new tires [130mph] (i was riding to brake them in!) <mistake number three!!!
i take the corner at about 45 degrees shitting my pants the entire way cuz i'm cutting through lanes of traffic while doing so [120mph] then as i reach the end of the turn [145mph] i see him still breathing down the back of my neck. i also see that i have missed my exit for the 101 south!
so thats when i cut my losses looked back at him [157mph] waved bye, and exited the 11th st exit to turn around and go home. to change my undies of course
