Your train of thought is actually what keeps me from going out of my way to get a sport bike.
If at all possible I would like to get a WRX STi as my play toy instead of bike. Then you will have something pretty to look at ahead of you in the distance while you drive your C6.
Would you rather be hit by a bus OR EXPLODE INTO A MILLION LITTLE PIECES.zengirl said:Why do men consider it manly to die doing something dumb? It's almost as if you've gotta be a complete moron in order to be considered a man
Simple.

What's the difference between irresponsibility and stupidity? Intent? If you do something you know is stupid on purpose, that's worse than stupid.KNYTE said:x 50, the triple 9 is soooo beautiful. Too big for me though.
Usually my mad cravings for death-defying stupidity are an issue of bad choice over lack of intelligence.
As I told Kimie this weeked; I'm irresponsible, not stupid.

Because riding a motorcycle is a COMPLETELY different experience than driving even a fast car.why_ask_why said:

I think what he means by it is he'll go out and have fun and do daring things, but knows when it's time to stop to avoid going too far and causing himself or someone else injury.

Sportbikes kick ass, and not all of them are uncomfortable - only typically the repli-racers.zengirl said:

I'm not looking at a Duc as a learning bike.
I just want to sleep with it at night. I'd get a Kaw and feel out the corners in that thing before stepping up to a $30k laser up the ass. A 150hp bike? Jesus, my Acura has 140hp.

Don't really hate Harley's, just question the sanity of anyone who would spend twice as much (With the exception of Sportsters, they're somewhat reasonable) as the competition.zengirl said:buncha haters

My bike has a measly 70hp and will still do 12 second quarter miles with a better rider than me.Lame-o said:I'm not looking at a Duc as a learning bike.

I lust after the Hayabusa, I'd love an Aprillia or Duc I just don't see myself ever plunking down the cash at this point.

Well I'd say it's more manly to die attempting a world record rock climb than dying because you didn't look both ways.zengirl said:Why do men consider it manly to die doing something dumb? It's almost as if you've gotta be a complete moron in order to be considered a man

I liked the Triumph they sold a couple of years ago, Speedmaster I think? They discontinued it but it was kind of a power cruiser with their tripleLame-o said:

That's exactly why I wouldn't mind getting one. I'd work on it and it would be my fixer-upper. My little project. And yes, that Triumph they marketed was a beast. Kind of like their "Hey, remember us" product.
