harley vs. sport bikes

[lorddarkice]

Z that was just a pointless post (about the rocket). of course its not a real rocket. i dont have much to say about it... but oh, wait... "if you dont have anything intellegent to say, dont say anything at all." i like calling my bike a rocket.. not a rice rocket though... because i hate that word (rice). when are you getting a bike anyway? i think there are 3-4 others on here that are in Flordia... i might ride over there one day and meet you guys.

lol, pointless post... well something like that. the term crotch rocket annoys the hell outta me, so i needed to extinguish some of my frustration, hehe. anyway, all the damn local bikes are overpriced, i could even get a relatively new 600cc inline 4 for what Im about to invest in those older or 500s/250s, etc. so im hanging in there until an opportunity arises. my budget is $2000-3000, and that includes all the gear and MSF fees, local fee is about $230.00. Im probably leaning toward a used '03 SV650S. anyway, a friend of mine, '03 F4i rider, riding for a year and half, is dropping by my place tomorrow to hang out some and hit the beach and local club. sadly, he's gonna move to Gainesville soon. I usually hang out in Miami, Jupiter, Stuart, Hutchinson Island, Jensen Beach, St. Lucie, Hobe Sound, Palm Beach, etc. But come end of August, Im mostly gonna reside in Miami, and two weekends a month in Stuart.

you're all the way in Louisiana, how the hell are you gonna hang out in So Fla? if you don't plan to move and live here, it's gonna be one long haul, .

Best place to ride is that long stretch of 3 lane express-way on I-95 after Palm Beach til Orlando and on. Perfect smokey gray smooth road, no blemish at all. I just got back from doing 95+ mph average on it.

Whoa since when did this become a " english language" forum? Lets stick with talking about the bikes! But that rocket thing reminded me of something....

A couple moths ago me and a buddy were bored sitting around, so we somehow came up with a plan (while watching MXC and REALTV on SPIKE) to get a LARGE rocket fuel cell (one of the biggest ones you can get for the large model rockets) and attach it to his CBR600.......But I'll make along storey short...hahah I must admit it may have actually made a slight difference, and it looked pretty damb cool....But I think his CBR's scorched tail would disagree!!!

Oh and I will try to convince him to do it again as I now have a brand new "DIGITAL CAMERA"!!!! hahah And it's not like his tail isn't already scorched....Right? heh heh

lol, I already know that, look up that post, the one you called lesson on "English." I already mentioned it, it's called Y2k bike. It was a prop bike they used it on the movie Torque, and then went into limited production along with a jet turbine old truck as well. What I like about is the sound, would love to make an inline 4 do that.

"running the ¼ mile in the high 9’s, with a theoretical top speed of 266 miles per hour!"

It's a slow ass bike, despite the top-end speed. Im sure your ZX-12R will eventually take it out, once you catch up to its low-end torque.

Yeah, hey I definitly need a new pipe now, my little cousin crammed rocks in mine today!!! He was playing in my garage and I went out to get him for supper and I caught him trying to get some rocks out of my pipe! That little rascal oh well that just pushed me to hurry up and get a new pipe already. heh heh

[Z_Fanatic]

at least he didn't cram in green soldiers.

Yeah it's suprising he didn't cause hes got a lot of those little soldiers!

I didn't get the pipe today but I got some insane riding gloves today. Icon T-max gloves. They are soo gnarly!! check em out

A lot of my friends have those gloves. They LOVE them.

great for track use, good looking gauntlet. but it might get hot for street use.

Blayne, don't tell you you don't get the urge to f-someone up with those gloves... That's what all the guys I know say they like them for.

I don't know about fighting with them, but they sure kick ass for biking.
