    You do loose weight by eating at mcD

    1. Eat a BigMac
    2. Get food poisoning
    3. Throw up for a few days
    4. Loose weight

    tuono top speed

    Ps To me talking about top speed on a naked is missing the point.

    I converted my RSV to a Tuono fully knowing I would reduce top speed.

    Even by going from i4's to a v2 I knew I was
    Buying a slower bike.

    You know what? I do not regret these decisions at all, in fact I would not have it any other way.

    Twins are not know for top speed but pull out of corners that inline 4 carnt match .I ride with mates who have r1 gsxr 1000 zx10 and blades and they cannot keep up pulling out of corners but top speed leave me for dead I get to about 140 and run out off power but I have beat the lot of them to that speed.

    I have since abandoned that method and embraced sham feeding
