Get on Your Bikes and Ride, Fellas!

Oh yes, I'm too afraid to purchase my own as we've had a very close friend of the family get killed on a motorcycle (no helmet..) only going about 50-60 in a 45mph zone.. They are a devil's advocate of a vehicle, you don't have the saftey of your steel cage that you're accustomed to, but you do have excellent, excellent gas mileage, excellent speed and power, you can park almost anywhere, you can access almost any road, and they're just really cool.

One of my favorite bikes to date, has GOT to be the Hayabusa. They've been around for a few years now and have made great progression in their stock HP. Seriously, a friend of my Fathers had one of these back in '99 brand new and he would tell us that stock he could trap it out (1/4 mile) at 12.1secs at something outrageous like 135mph.

New '08 models

Ooooh! The '08 models are pretty!

My Dad bought the Triumph Sprint RS this morning, and it's being delivered tomorrow morning - I'll try and get some pictures of it.

My brother has a 1000gsxr.

Thats good to know Hancock, say Hancock how come you haven't posted for a while?. Haha

My Dad got rid of the Triumph - the machine was much too big (sat on it he couldn't touch the ground) and far too heavy (if it were to tip he'd have no chance of holding it up). Instead, he's now got a smaller, much lighter Yamaha. I don't know much other than it's 600cc, and has acceleration similar to a Porsche.

I like regular bicycles

Those are fun, what kind do you have?

Just a mountain bike. Although I am I annoyed at the fact that it has started to change shifts on its own, quite annoying.

What company made the bike?
