[history]
Honda, in conjunction with Top Gear magazine and racing outfit Team Dynamics, has built a high performance ride-on lawn mower capable of reaching speeds up to 130 mph.
And, yes, it can still cut the grass.
The so-called Mean Mower started out as a production Honda HF2620 Lawn Tractor before the team replaced its stock 20 hp motor with the 109 hp 1,000 cc V-twin from a Honda VTR1000 Firestorm sport bike along with its six-speed transmission and reengineered the suspension to handle a set of ATV wheels and tires.

lol!
I rode 120 miles yesterday and another 90 the day before. Most of my riding buddies work so I am relegated to either riding alone or doing so when someone has a day off. Tuesday I rode alone and yesterday I was with a friend.

As a cin-ema buff, I can safely say that "The Waterboy" is one of my favorites.
Did you know that the actor that played "Roberto Boucher" (Bobby's father) was actually the director, Frank Coraci?

1600 CC??? yikes. I had a monstrous little 2 stroke in ‘75,
the Yamaha RD 350, which would beat ANYTHING in the quarter mile up to an 850 Norton. It was all I needed. But naturally
NOT a touring bike. And it would foul plugs if you didn’t abuse it: the original Japanese masochist Bike.

When I was 18, I got a 1 year old Irish Setter.
Setter's are known to be a little on the high strung side.
Our vet at the time, was an older guy. Said she was the most hyper Setter he had ever seen.
My friends all said she was a dog version of me.
