Little Angels and Dangerous Bastards

[McWild]

I don't know maybe it's something to do with keeping licences/friends/working bikes/health.

My bike was designed to round up cows

I'm a timid little girl, and I'm afraid of cows So I use my bike for long-distance adventure touring instead.

Mr Kawasaki would be very disappointed

Surely you mean Mr Cow-a-saki?

Bear with him folks, The thread starter doesn't really understand motorbikes, Or the enjoyment people get from them.

He thinks its all about how fast he can wank his mangina.

Perhaps he will grow out of it.

Nothing more to add really.

and no I'm not talking about Dangerous Bastard

can someone tell me why there are so many people on this site that appear to have no desire to work a bike like it was designed to be ?

I'm not saying we should be patch members with attitude, but where are all these dayglo vest slomos coming from, shouldn't they be on C90 step-thrus or something ?

Because the speed limit is 100kmh, the road surface changes every 10mtr & some people feel they have a moral responsibility not to put themselves or others at risk. It's madness to work a modern, powerful bike as it was designed to be on public roads. Get a track.

Sounds like OP hasn't hit the tarmac yet.. there are two types of motorcycle riders: those who have, and those who haven't. I'll happily wear a day glo vest and ride slow on my R6 if conditions say so

[sinfull]

Yeah fuckin aye !!! I'm gonna get me some of them spike stud bolts for my screen and carve the barstards dayglows, as i pass em up the inside !!!

[gatch]

Im dying for a chance to ride my bike as it was intended to be..

On a track..

I'm not a real man.

There, I said it.

Because I'd cry if I got pinged by a cop.
Because I'd cry if I scratched my bike.
Because I'd cry if I scratched me.

To avoid these tears, I control how I ride.

That's not to say I'm a full-on Nana. I sometimes pass on yellow lines and I don't always ride at or below the speed limit. Sometimes I (gasp) only wear my unarmoured Draggin' jeans on my legs.

But I take into account the risk of pain (financial, mental or physical) in any choice I make when riding.

So I'm not a Man.

(But don't call me a girl, because there are real girls here who could kick your arse.)

I don't wear a day-glow vest, however I sometimes spend hours in the evening just applying layers of lovely smelling polish to the paint-work. Beats watching crap on TV.

[Big Dave]

Sometimes I wear light colours like Navy Blue.

[Headbanger]

I have a shocking pink pair of wet-weather trousers.

Cool as fuck.

Keeps me dry and warm in the worst of conditions, And hell, they may even help me be seen through all the bad weather, and if not, I'm still dry and warm.

Is that to match your eyes big boy?

[dipshit]

Funny, i don't remember Suzuki making me sign a contract or anything when they sold me a GSX-R...????

They couldn't give a fuck how i ride it. So long their customers stay alive and in one piece and keep buying more crap off them... what would they care?

[Fatt Max]

I really wish I could ride my bike like it was meant to be...I'm sure the manual says something about the bike not to be ridden by someone (and I quote from page 6, weight displacements)

"being the equivalent weight of the fucking bike you fat bastard, now fuck off and give the forks a chance"

So yes, 80kg lighter would allow me to ride the bike as it is meant to be ridden.

Dont know about a c90 but I had a ZX81 computer once...
