Ksquared · 04-05-2011, 08:22 AM

several different bikes, I want to migrate to a s1000rr sometime soon

right now though, R6, FZ1, Daytona 675, and a 250 every now and then

Hawkeye · 04-05-2011, 01:39 PM

I have an '08 R6. There are a lot of people on these forums that ride.

McMuffin · 04-05-2011, 01:49 PM

I've had my license going on seven years, but don't own bike. I've always borrowed my cousins Honda 600rr, good bike.

had one of those for a spell, wasn't my cup of tea, suspension felt TOO tight or somethign along those lines.

may have been due to my height as well, legs were in a weird position

I know what you mean, kinda has that track like suspension. I'm 6'1 and didn't bother me much, maybe because I would only cruise short distance.

MisterSkiMask · 04-05-2011, 02:20 PM

used to, still have my license

yea that bike is a polar opposite (for a 600 cc bike) to the 675, the 675 I love as it's flickable and it's like a 250 with more power

(and 10x better in general)

UncleWede · 04-07-2011, 12:45 PM

I cruise a custom softtail I had built to spec. Paid about the same as a Fatboy if I had bought then modded. The picture is when it was new, since I've had the rims powder coated in a flat black.

Ksquared · 04-07-2011, 02:12 PM

This is my baby:

Excellent power and stupid torque (150+ lbs/ft) - makes for a terrific long-distance ride - but nice around town also, if you have the physical capability for handling it.

05' R1

skinnycow · 04-12-2011, 01:51 AM

gsxr 600

got this for a really good deal, had it lowered and the seat shaved, but without my high heels i'm on tippy toes, so i'm planning on getting a ninja 250 later on.

A ninja 250 will feel gutless after that bike. Try on a Ducati Monster, the seat is low right out of the box, and nothing sounds better then a Ducati V-Twin

You mean L twin right?

Here's my beemer. 2003 R1150R with 67K miles. Still runs like a champ. Mods in my sig.

-=Hot|Ice=- · 04-12-2011, 09:37 AM

09 ZX6R. Full Akra Exhuast coming. Pics after I install.

No, I meant what I said, and I am fully aware that it is a 90 deg V-Twin.

And No, I don't consider a Porsche Flat Six a V, it is horizontally opposed, so STFU!

rs6655 · 04-12-2011, 09:59 AM

We had a 2004 K1200LT but due to my bad back it stayed parked more and more so I ended up selling it. We were able to put 24,000 miles on it while we had it. It was the 7 Series of BMW's bikes.

I was just giving you shit

Ducati thinks they are better than everyone else calling their V an L. If VW had that mentality they would be calling their VR6 an inline 6.
