    heh

    The Barry-Baker Tunnel (North of the Golden Gate Bridge) is one-way
    (controlled by traffic signals) and is about a half mile long. The
    signal interval is about 5 minutes. I split to the front of the queue
    and blast off at the green light. It's a fucking hoot between hitting
    the rev limiter and the burble when you back off on the throttle.

    Understood. On the SV, that's about 80 without the screen. Anything over
    that it feels like my helmet is going to pop off.
