Yeah, the Ninja is a nice bike. I originally intended to get a Ninja as my first bike, but fell in love with the FJR and haven't looked back. Lol

Maybe someday in the future there'll be a Ninja. Will likely be a while, since I think the next in my garage is likely to be a Yamaha Super Tenere or a BMW R 1200 GS. Cool

Chicken chasers represent, my first bike was a C50 Cub.

why don't motorcycle cops get these?


Because they need to be able to catch someone speeding on a bicycle?



theye got guns dont theye?


Depends...


sadly when we give our cops guns they don't do very well. bursting into someones house and shooting for nothing is a tad more heavy handed than what mr a commando has been charged with, premeditated too. insert keystone cops music.

i was going to go into something else about the integrity of some cops over here but i wont.

Ok, I have decided that probably sometime towards the end of 2014 or in 2015 I'm going to get a sportbike... I'm a Harley rider and they are the best bikes ever.

Just morbid curiosity but what would be a super cool sportbike? I was thinking the Ducati 848 Evo but I learned that they have awful low end torque so that's out... I'm not interested in track.

Honda CBR600RR?

Morrin Joe smiles at the thought of her pink pearl 1997 Harley XL883.

PS:

I have seen many other male truck drivers from Detroit riding this same pink bike that also have a full beard and weigh 369 pounds with big *beep*. <--- just saying ^-^

hondas good build quality bit boring to ride imo (they made it too good). test ride the lot before you buy. treat them all with some respect. trackdays can be fun so never discount it.

any 600 needs to be kept wound up to really get the best out of it so unless you ride like a tit on the road your never going to get the best out of the bike.

keep away from ducatis, posers bike. not every time but mostly.

I want a Ducati Streetfighter.... I'm not a poser, I just think it'll go with my helmet Cool

You can tell I'm not a poser because my bike has an angelic glowBig smile

HAHAHA I used my masterful Paint skills to hide my license plate! Not sure why.....

*Edit: My helmet is the Bell Rogue and it is absolutely awesome Pirate

I didn't want to create a quotenaught, so:

This will be my next bike. All it needs is taller handle bars. Hangers for the win!!!

Also, the Bell Rogue helmet is awesome.

Lastly, I really do like sport bikes. They are just so light and nimble compared to the bikes I've had. Only problem, is my back doesn't like them as much. I did ride a BMW R1200 in Europe last year. That was a pretty fun and comfortable.

I was hunting for sick loot, but all I could get my hands on were 50 corpses[:|]..............[:=d]

I first learned to ride on a brand new 1991 Kawasaki ZZR-250 and then i went on to the Yahama CBR 1000F. Finally, i rode a ZZR-1100 with a big airbox and high compression pistons.

This was when i realized that the bike was always going to be faster then i could go mentally. After taking a b-line at 180kph on a curve in the freeway and sling-shotting to the outside lane, nearly hitting the center barrier, it was then that i started riding tourers.

Now i ride the Honda ST 1300.
