The Blind Motorcycle speed record was set in England in early August on a
slightly longer runway at 165.85 mph by Billy 'the Whizz' Baxter on a
ZX-12R Kawasaki.  Once again the rider rode solo and had two other
outriders giving direction instructions through a radio link.


-- Darn!

He's got me beat-- and I even opened my eyes once or twice!

Seriously, that's pretty impressive. My congratulations.
Russ, #1226B

ps-- I do know of "sighted" ZX-12R riders who have gone faster with their
heads up...  well, in the dark, so to speak.
