I got a 93 Suzuki GSXR750. I definitely recommend an older bike for your 1st bike, and don't get a liter bike, you;ll probably just kill yourself on it. 600's and 750's are the way to go. Good luck.

yea, all my friend are getting like 2003- 2004's. im not spending that much to go out and ---- it up. i was looking into older bikes, probly a 600 since there easy to find. all the 93-95's i keep finding are like 4500 bucks. it makes me wanna just get a 2002 for a little more, but id rather not spend that to begin with. i highlited a bunch in my want ad, so im gonna look up the styles of them and such right now

i have a harley sportster 1200 my moms boyfreind gave me when he bought his fatboy.
it sucks. youl be disapointed. and it sucks and you'l look like a retard riding it.

get a 600 thats what im going to sell the sportster for next year. or maybe a zx12r because this girls dad told me 5000 and he would wait for me to buy it because i work on his bikes at the track.

i recomend a 600 in anything realy suzuki/kawasaki/yamaha/honda have fun. dont ride to crazy or be an ass the bike will deffinatly make you pay.

Re:Bikes
 
yeah well, try re-selling that 600---

i just want a bike that i can ride and get my money back out of when its time to get another. you race around on your crotch rocket, i will cruise on my harley. <- 2 different things.

if i wanna go fast, i will do it in my car.

im scared of going 120+ on a bike...
i watched a front tire blow out on a guy at about 130 and well, hes either in a bed or in a wheel chair for the rest of his life.

yeah you can say that can happen on any bike, but thats just my opinion. i know if I have a bike capeable of extreme speeds, thats all i will do. i would kill myself. i would rather die going fast in a car.

yellowcrx6 08-10-2004 10:12 AM

Re:Bikes
 
all of this is very relevant. i dont even go that fast in my car anymore. i guess the tnedency would be to do it on a bike, but going that fast in the open scares me. i just want it to cruise around on and ----. im usually pretty inteligent about ---- like that, so i wont let me self be an idiot.

Re:Bikes
 
id rather die on a bike. it would deffinatly be faster.

120+ on a bike is a rush expecialy in 7.83 when you hit a trap od 130 when your front wheel doesnt come down to the 8th mile line. damn i wanna ride this guy burts bike so bad :P fastest ive gone on a bike is an 8.90 if you raise your head it feels like your neck is going to rip off. its so fun

sounds like it would be real fun. ::)

---- that.

Re:Bikes
 
its such a rush. you get off the bike and your shakeing because your adrenaline is so high. if you wreck at the track all you have to do is tuck your arms in and roll youl be fine if you have your leathers on, but if you try to slide on that rubber youl have a new hole ripped in your ass.

and would you realy want to be traped in a car half crushed and bleeding for an hour while the parametics try to get you out or fly into a tree on a bike and die instantly.

Re:Bikes
 
I got a BMX with some raing stickers and no brakes. I think that's a little hard core for an novice though? ;) But I think that's about the only thing I'll ride on two wheels.
