I like those white tires, awsome bike.

Looks cool. Is it loud?

Post by **bork[e]** » Mon Apr 11, 2005 3:51 am

Yeah, I'm sure he as put a few card on the spokes to make it produce noise while riding down his street. So I would suppose a little.

Cruisers

Not everyone wants a crotch rocket. Some people like to ride just to ride and not go as fast as possible at all times.

What's with that triangle shape in your front yard?

Yup, I wanted a crotch rocket when I was a teenager in highschool, but now at 25 my tastes have changed. I just wanna cruise. :icon31:

Its not Harley loud, but it does have a nice sound. Some whitewall tires would look sweet on it.

P.S. Thats not my yard, its the yard of the guy I bought it from. Well actually it WAS my yard, I lived in that house till I was 6, heh it was pretty weird finding out that was where the bike was.

Same here. I'd rather have a cruiser. I have no need for anything else.

You seem to be of the mindset that people with "crotch rockets" want to go as fast as possible at all times.

Edit: Nearly all bike riders are homos. Most of them just want to drive to the local bike night/bike show and stand around and talk about how their bike has 346363hp that they will never use and is loud with some new kicking rad exhaust they just put on.

And why else would you buy one?

Mine performed great 5mph wheelies in industrial parking lots.

Well most people that I know that have them, buy them for the speed.

And none of the bike owners I know do the bike show stand around thing you mentioned. they ride them often. Guess it's a whole different kind of people where you are.

Oh lord. We have the "bike night" at this local bar and grill type place. It's rather comical. Some entertaining events include some jackass on a Harley blowing a rod through his case when he thought he was cool doing a rev limiter burnout, some kid wrecking an 04 r6 in the middle of the street trying to do a power wheelie, girl standing in the middle of the road trying to do a burnout (she evidently didn't notice she was in neutral still, and this went on for about 45 seconds while she was banging her head trying to look hard or something).

Post by **Scourge** » Mon Apr 11, 2005 4:20 am

Sounds almost entertaining. If it wasn't so sad. Lol.

Nice ride

It is amazing to me that the majority of the people in the US drive cars, the majority are against bikes and the bike people squable over cruisers or nakeds or crotch rockets.

All of the different bike groups claim its the other group that has the predjudice, but that is bullshit. Motorcyclists are motorcyclists worst enemy.

I just don't like the look of cruisers

I think almost all riders are douchebags.

Post by **Dukester** » Mon Apr 11, 2005 4:25 am

I think cruisers look uncomfortable and I think crotch rockets look cool, but if I was buying anything it would be the slowest thing

Post by **R00k** » Mon Apr 11, 2005 4:26 am

Looks like it's in great shape. What's the drip? Is that just water, or is it oil or something?

How'd the trip go man? You ready to head west yet? :icon32:

The only thing I have against bikes is they have taken a few of my friends. Bikes are great rides but if you get in a accident expect to get hurt or worse. I guess all I am saying is if you ride be careful

I couldn't get any good pics of the area around LAX (we were riding in some blacked out Lincoln Towncar), but the trees/shrubbery around there was a nice break from Bradford Pears :P

lol, I bet. I wouldn't mind visiting out there some time, but I like all the green out here too much to stay long.

Good luck to you man, I hope you land it. :icon14:
