2003 Cobra on CL...

[stieny]

I never said I felt this way, but that's the way people, in general, look at them.... i mean, i don't blame them entirely... until the new Kawi 250 came out with a decent new look last year, anything below the 600cc level was just a flat out UGLY bike - and you wanna be proud of what you're riding around on.... I don't even oppose starting out on a 750 or 1000cc bike (my first sportbike was my TL-R - but i rode my dad's cruiser for several years before this) - you just have to show a lot of maturity and restraint

This is a good point and that comment wasn't directed at you. People in general have no idea about supersports.

How'd we go from gates selling his cobra to bike talk??? HIJACKED THREAD???....Gates works for me, and he sent me that Craigslist link a few days ago. When I asked him on Tuesday why he wanted to sell it he replied " I want a Supra".......He doesn't think he'll get what he wants for it, but he was offered a trade for a 2005 (i think that was the year) GTO and a 19?? Fox body for it. he didnt take it.......I work with him tomorrow and I will tell him to chime in

Oh and bish.....not like it matters but my 6R would have took out your TLR!

[2001GTTT]

yea right, f**k all you guys, i got a rascal scooter here that will eat 600's and 1000's alive.

i'm starting to wonder what you're smoking....

I guarantee you it wouldn't have.... sorry to burst your bubble.... but there's no chance in the world with me riding that bike, that your '03ZX6 was going to outrun my Tiller, short of you having a turbo or nitrous hooked up to it...

all friendly of course if it hadn't been totalled by Scott's buddy, i'd prove it to you :(

LOL, yes all friendly. I wish I hadn't sold it because I would have laid money down that I would have been out front of the Tiller.

TLR's are nice bikes, one of my favorites next to RC51's but it would have fallen prey to my little ole 600. Promise!

[ddmi-twin90gt]

Then I would of passed you both on a whellie! LOL

OH i would have taken that bet....

the power to weight ratio on a bike is more than light years away from a car..

show me a 3k lb car with 1500hp get 40 mpg and costs 13k

show me a bike that I can walk away from in an accident. Show me one where I can have HVAC or other creature comforts as well. You sacrifice a ton just for speed on a bike.

anybody with 10k can be the fastest on the streets if they just want to buy a bike. wow.

Who does walk away from a high speed wreck?
I don't sacrifice nothing, sorry you feel that way.
Anybody? SOME people can, knowing how and having the testicular fortitude. Same goes with cars.

Sorry for the overarching generalization, but I think what I was saying stands on its own.

So if Big Ben was driving a car instead of riding a motorcycle, he'd have ended up the same way... right? (Yes, I am more than aware of the fact that a helmet would have greatly reduced his injuries)

Regardless,a motorcycle is more dangerous no matter what speed you're going. Don't take that as a personal attack, its just the truth of the matter.
