Racing is not a good idea unless it is at the racetrack. It only takes a split second to loose control at high speeds. My uncle Clifton likes to repair motorcycles so he built a 250 Yamaha street bike just to race. Billy and his brother both owned the Yamaha 250. Billyâ??s brother wanted to take the bike for a drive. It was a nice day and my uncle told him to be very careful because he had did some work on the motorcycle. Billy's brother was in the driveway and as he engaged the clutch the motorcycle took off and left him behind. All we could see was a cloud of dust because my uncle had a dirt driveway. Billyâ??s brother was OK but did not want to ride motorcycles after that. That bike was really fast. The engine turned so fast that it made a loud screaming noise. My uncle did well at the race track. He beat 900cc and 1000cc bikes riding the Yamaha 250.
Racing even at the race track is a risk.
