Yes, I had a 79 LTD that I turned into a "MAD-Max" special.
That bike I owned had way more power than I could handle. Someone who was good could have gotten much more out of it. I could run the 1/4 mile at Muncie Speedway at 11 seconds flat at 128mph. Going through the traps, I was running at about 9,000 rpm in 3rd gear, still had 4th & 5th gear.
Someone good could have gotten a better time. I couldn't get traction out of the lights.
