When i move out of my house i think ill get a gixer 750

by breakjunki » Thu May 31, 2007 4:53 am

my frined bought a new gsx-r anniversary edition about 2 ? or so years ago... Its nice, but damn I weigh about 175. a 900 gixr was a little scary dumping the clutch at higher rpms :) . bass a$$ bike though.... I have an older yamaha 500, but I'll probably hurt myself on this just as easy....

They didnt even consider aerodynamics... most of those guys are just dumb as shit. LOL nah im joking... obviously they did but still why would u want to go that fast anyway?

True. But keep in mind when you're talking about a 20 year difference in technology. A new Suzuki GSX 600 or Yamaha R6 puts out more (or very close to the same) HP than this Kawasaki 1000. Newer bikes weigh nearly half as well. Aluminum has done a lot in the last decade. The 1987 has a top speed of 155, the worlds fastest in 1987. A new GSX 600 can hit 180mph stock. I personally video taped my roomate doing it. A modified Hyaiabusa (sp?) 1300cc with mods can hit 250mph. That is just insane and stupid though. I'd like to see the aerodynamics testing they had to do to figure out how to keep it on the ground.

I've been checking out that can-am myself. Pretty sweet I think.

Well I don't trust myself on 2 wheels anymore... ever since my brain surgery I get a twitch in my neck (gets worse when it's hot), so I haven't enjoyed the open road in a while... Some day I'll build a trike so I can get back out there...
Or I could go this route: http://spyder.brp.com/en-US/
The Can-Am Spyder is sweet and with an MSRP of $14,999.00 not all that bad of a price either :)

Your friend had to have had medical or collision on his policy then. Liability is cheap. Registration and all that is no big deal. Like I said though I haven't even seen it run yet. I'll make up my mind then depending on its performance.

by CaptainPioneer » Wed May 30, 2007 6:36 am

yea Progressive for a 20yr old with a clean record is only 242 so Insurance isnt the issue its just u should check ur state laws on riding a motorcycle and licencing and registration
