I had a similar moment that still makes me laugh.  I was Ricky racer on my 1200 (150rwhp ish) going into a sweeping right hander, giving it the beans (I thought), and an unnamed forum member here on a 40hp kawasaki versys on DOT knobbies passed me on the outside while waving at me.  Thats the day I really started asking questions. Hahaha

Similar: Perfect day on a perfect smooth Swiss engineered road on a K100, getting adventurous with shaving the footpegs and sliding the front tyre a little.  Then blown away by several Jappos - a Honda 750 four K1!!, GS750 etc.  Talk about ego deflation....till I caught up with them at a cafe, took a closer look and slowly began to understand.  All of them shared a common theme - Fritz Egli frames.
