Again, there is no reason to do 50mph over the limit. If you read my earlier post you'll see I also believe speed limits in some areas should be raised like on highways and roads in the middle of no where.
I'll stand up for my RIGHTS but my right to drive on a highway/road is not a right but a priviledge. It is my RIGHT to own the fastest bike out there and my RIGHT to run it on any track or private property but not on a highway.

This illustrates the one condition under which you CAN actually lose your rights: when you don't believe in them yourself.
