      The bike is street legal lights and all, but as he said if they had a race there with competition his lap would fall short.

        Dangerous track. Dude has skill and nads, but not sure about brains.

            ..and a lot of other people driving / riding it without brains. I think that's why the mirrors are left on Gatekeeper - just to check that some loon in a Lamborghini isn't trying to overtake you at at 100 mph on the hairpin.

              If one is shaving things off.......to get as much as one can get then the mirrors are not needed

              I posted this a while back, the guy is not that far behind in time, and I don't see mirrors on this bike
