Ive seen the turbo busas before. I always wondered how fast you could get going on one.

Well that one right there, was turbo charged with an intercooler on it....he had it up to 220 before, and my ninja would top out at like 150-160 or so and he would spin the tire by me at that speed and, it actually looked like he teleported he was going so fast...

unless you have seen one in person next to you while you were riding a bike also you would not believe what those things can do with a turbo on them

How can somthing that says "Bud Light" be american idol?

"American Idol" had a party and was too lame to serve REAL beer?

Seriously though, you can't TELL it says "Bud Light" in the avatar. Too tiny.

why? bike gets outperformed and outclassed by all the others

[JohnGalt]

there's no road bikes that will live with that one

[xqwizit]

Learned on a 600cc w/no probs..

Edit: Not this one ^ My first was an older beat up zx-6r, I would NOT recommend buying a new bike to learn on, trust me.. even if you dont go down in the first couple of months, chances are good that you will make little mistakes like it falling over and ect. My first one did anyways..

[George Carlinian]

A lot of nice bikes on page one.

There's nothing wrong with the 250 (or the 500). Ignore what all the jerk-offs say. Ask anyone whose REALLY ridden bikes, 100+hp bikes, and they'll tell you that the 250 is a very light and capable bike, if you know how to rev it. Bang for buck, great bike. Besides, for $3000 you can get very comfortable with it very fast, knowing its a lot more disposable than a 10k bike.

[NaturalMsO]

That red Ducati looks like a moped. LOL

[dempo25]

yea ive heard great things about the 250, even more so than the 500

and how DO you rev it?

u ever drivin a manual motorized anything? u keep the clutch in or in nutraul and hit the gas...

[Chook Legs]

Unfortunatley in Aus we can only get 250cc bikes on the first year of the licence. Then have to do another test before we are allowed an unrestricted licence.
So im stuck with my honda VTR 250. Great bike though. I prefer nakeds and classics. BSA DBD34 Gold Star, one of the greatest motorbikes ever made.

[r1crx]

i used to say i would kill my self if i owned a bike. Well here i am 1 year letter w/ my baby and 12k miles all achived by me. from tucson to san diego to flagstaff, payson, Los Angeles even Tijuana(MEXICO) and Rocky Point (MEXICO). You learn to respect it real quick believe me.

[glk19]

and if you say your not gonna wear gear, i'll show the rest of the pics

[FunkLord]

That's what I'm talking about.

My first one was a Ninja 500...for $5k it was right on the mark for me.
Now I have a FZ6, exactly what I want/need...part sport, part cruiser, pure power when I need it. Same engine as the R6 but more mid-range torque. I dont think I'll ever want/need a liter bike...too much for me.

[RippedAzn]

+1 to the gear. and just out of curiosity, show me the pics. i wear gear all the time and i always need some pictures such as the one you posted to keep me level heaaded when i ride. as for you people who dont gear up, you'll regret it once you go down.

[Sebstar]

One day I shall have one.....one day.

my dad has one. in black. i hope to inherit it one day

[George Carlinian]

We just had a guy lose his life for not buckling his helmet. His funeral will be Wednesday. I know I used to like leaving it like that at times. After hearing about his helmet pop off, then die, I'm encouraged to not do that anymore.
I'm also wearing more gear now, mainly because I'm seeing how frequently cars are completely ignoring me, cutting me off, and I am also getting more 'brave' with things I do on my bike at the same time. +2

i dont know what the easiest way to send them to you is so just pm me your email

[RippedAzn]

bulldog, i'm glad you've decided to start wearing more gear now. i hope others will realize and follow suit.

a quote that i always say to myself before i ride is "sweat dries faster than road rash heals." interpret that quote anyway you like, but remember that if any of you go down without gear....well i can't say much to you except that you learned the lesson the hard way.

[JeepCreeper]

For a first bike?

Dibs on whats left of your bike. (assuming there is anything)

My first bike was a 900 Ninja. I survived. Of course I sh*t myself a couple of times.

[flaziblaz]

Lol at the guy that posted "busas are the best bikes". I ride with busa guys all the time, on the freeway my busa friends are untouchable but in the canyons on my 600(r6) i lead all the time.
+1 to the wear your gear. I wrecked about 7 weeks ago and if i would have had knee protection i would have got up unscathed.

how do you like the FZ6? I want to get one after I get better on my cruiser. Looks like a sick bike and the seating seems better than leaning. Anything you dont like about it?

[MusclesMarinara]

I did some work for this shop A LONG time ago...

[Achilles_]

LOL at the soon the be squids...

The GSXR 1000 is a beautiful bike but the Hayabusa is so much better Hayabusas are the best bikes. I've always wanted one Since I can never have one of those, I WILL get a trike one day. I will.

x2
The Hayabusa is truly a work of art!
