I loved the creator's comment,“It’s a life-threatening experience. It accelerates faster than it brakes. But it’s fun…you have to pay attention all the time, otherwise you could end up in a ditch after opening throttle.”

That pretty much sums up motorcycling in general. :lol:

Love the fact Czech law only allows you to majorly change one aspect. So he's got a massively upgraded engine but the original brakes and suspension :lol:
