You reckon do you ? You sound like a young fella to me. Perhaps you haven't learned yet that we are all just trying to live our lives in peace. I am greatly distressed reading your annoyed rant almost everywhere on this forum. It seems to me that I am in the wrong place. I had hoped this was a nice place to hang out, but I don't feel safe at all knowing you are ready to have a fucking bash.

How about you consider the damage you do ? To your wife, your kids, your friends, and just the people around you ?

/me wipes tear from eye

I would like an apology please.

Steve

welcome steve nice shiny bike by the way

**CookMySock** · 7th February 2008, 09:51

Thank you babyblade250rr. I love it so much.. I did nearly get the 250rr - doesn't the rr sound great @19k..

edit: oh you have an R6. Yum.

Just got back from a hot return trip to rotovegas.. hands still getting sore, still freaking out a wee bit in the tight corners, but concentrating and getting it laid over properly 90% of the time. The other 10% of the corners I seem to remain shiny-side-up somehow..

I'm still rehearsing every corner in my mind - it may be a while before I don't have to.

Do I ever get to relax and just ride ? or does such a thing not exist ?

yeah used to ride a cbr250rr greatest 250 every produced in my opinion(not that counts for much around here lol) the R6 takes alot more concentration as things happen alot faster than a 250 but I LUV HER lol

I feel threatened and intimidated by your display of dominance and rudeness.

Please do not post in threads that *I* start.

Please do not approach me in person - remain clear from my personal space or I will leave and not return.

Blocked permanently. Bye.

Asshole.

Mate, for all his (half-hearted) shit-stirring, cowpoos does have a lot of valuable info.

Am interested in just how different the 650 Hyo's are different (apart from the engine D'uh!)

Welcome along.

It's rather hard to hold onto in 2nd gear at full tap and the front is rather light at full boogeh, and I haven't managed to redline it yet. The shop told be it was quicker than the suzy 650 vtwin. It is emphatically NOT a smooth engine - the mirrors are a blur (thunderclap!) with more than half throttle on, but idling around it's a kitten.

So yeah I like it a whole lot. Very much actually. I never thought I would own such a thing. I had to sell my jetboat to get this, but so far it's been a good tradeoff.

Yes, it has been interesting looking through the sites' various opinions and factoids.

DB

41 not old

my last bike was 25 years ago, Suzuki GT185 2 stroke now Suzuki 250 4 stroke a world of difference.
What will salesmen say next eh

wellcome online, enjoy your biking, safe riding

**emaN** · 8th February 2008, 20:05

DB, good to meet ya tonight. Hope ya had a good ride back.

I do think you may've got the wrong end of 'poos...
Take time to suss people out; i lay low for 'bout a year after joining.
(anyone who says different is lying!

Asshole.

I really think you've got the wrong end of the stick with Cowpoos mate. He's a good guy. If you don't like what people say then just ignore it - if you want to make an enemy that's the point at which you give a redeye and you had better be prepared to take a lot of the shit that goes with it. If he was havin' a go at someone the chances are it was someone he knew in "Meatspace" rather than a random comment to a stranger from behind a keyboard.

Use this forum to meet other bikers and then the forum becomes a whole lot more fun coz you know how far you can push people for a laugh.

Welcome to KB....oh and by the way - we say Arsehole here - an asshole is an underground place for keeping donkeys
