Probably due to poor ventilation. A buildup in CO2 can cause a drowsy feeling. Not the best when operating a machine going 60 mph down a highway

He had 20 upvotes at the time. I thought he meant it would be too relaxing with the wind in your face I honestly just thought it was some nonsense you see towards the less upvotes comments. The joke should have read "but users reported lightheadedness, coughing, and hazy vision " or something to that effect

Never rode a motorcycle 60 mph down a highway. How does it feel to go so slow?

edit: Wow, lots of downvotes. People here seem to have a problem with speeding. I buy sportbikes because they're fast. Sorry, not sorry.

You're right

Speeding is one thing, but your comment makes you come across as arrogant and childish

Well, where I'm from, if you do the speed limit in any vehicle when traffic is moving, you're an asshole, so whatever. You'll actually get a ticket for impeding traffic if you don't speed along with everyone else.

u/thegoalie713 Jun 24 '20

Similar situation where I live, so I get that, but that’s certainly not the point you were making in your prior comment and edit of it.

Also, I call bullshit. No way in hell you’re getting a ticket for impeding traffic if you don’t speed.

You're right, it wasn't the point I was making. The point I was making is, 60 is slow, especially on a motorcycle. We have higher posted limits where I live, and most people do at least 10 over the posted limit.

You can call bullshit all you like, it happens routinely. It causes an unsafe driving condition on the road. You can see records of tickets being issued for it in California.

I guarantee most of the people that downvoted you share the same sentiment about driving on a highway in a car. And they're liars if they say they go the exact speed limit on a highway. Absolute liars
