Getting a r6 with a restricted?

[Laava]

it sounds like you want to make this a challenge.

If i can steals your bike, you dont piss and moan to the pigs. Deal-e-o?

Bro, wouldn't that qualify as work?

For a 13 year old schoolgirl, you have quite the imagination!

The lambo was a bit of hyperbole to illustrate a point my illiterate and deliberately obtuse friend.

So in other words, it is an emotive argument that tries to sway on on shock value and very little logical basing?

Going by statistics (Pages 20 & 61), the average age of vehicle in NZ is ~15 years. In other words, most vehicles on the road that you will encounter are shitboxes worth fuck all. So statistically, the damage you cause is going to be pretty insiginficant. However, I suspect this situation is somewhat exacerbated by most people's shocking financial incompetence and tendency to live paycheck to paycheck.

I'm certainly not advocating non-insurance, but remember that the real reason to get insurance is to protect your asset, i.e. if some uninsured bro hits you in his bongo wagon and not for some other munter's benifit. Make no mistake about that.

*yawn*,
getting a bit maha there dude...
I had higher expectations from you.

If your going to take a risk on a R6 then fuck it,why not get an R1 ?

[f2dz]

I never got this attiude. How many lambos have you seen in the last year?

I see one pretty much daily, sometimes more; not to mention all the Maseratis, Ferraris, Porsches, etc.

Ride without a license or insurance, your choice. Just keep Murphy's law in mind..

if you do get an R6, you should try and have/get access to a LAMs bike as well. cant exactly sit your licence tests on the R6... and while akzles views might have some merit with a few people, to my mind a bike licence is so easy and in-expensive to get its well worth the saved hassle of riding without one IMHO.

Have to agree here, as I said I do own and ride an R6 myself, on my Ls but I also own a DR650 so I can be legal and I ride it more often than the R6 which mostly gets ridden when I go out of town.

Yeaaaah no. There's a number of reasons why that's a dumb idea, but I can't be bothered to articulate. Just wait it out, you seem far too trigger happy for your own good. Riding safe has a lot to do with patience and self control - two virtues that you seem to be lacking right about now. May I ask what bike you used to ride?

I had a cbr250rr for more than a year now but have been riding dirt bikes for most of my life. Also I'm not really one of those bikers that will redline each time from the lights.

[isukhraj]

FFS, is everyone on here bloody nana's who never do anything wrong and travel the open roads at 99.9 km/h just so they don't break the law, yeah its probably not a god idea for him to get a r6 on a restricted if he has only just learnt to ride, but maybe he been riding for years but only just decided to get his bike liscence, who cares, if he wants to get an r6 and become a statistic then its his choice.

Fucking thumbs up mate xD but still thanks for the opinions guys. Got to keep everyone happy.

i'd rather red line the cbr than ride an r6 far below its capabilities. the r6 becomes more of status symbol than something you can ride the hell out of and truly enjoy, does it not?

I don't look at mine as a status symbol (it's not helped get me laid). Obviously I rarely use anywhere near the full capabilities of the bike but I love riding it knowing that if I want to take off there are very few vehicles that can keep up, the occasional bike and only the fastest cars would have any chance at all. I still want to get out on the track with it but can't justify the cost (tires, leathers, more servicing and the possibility of damaging the bike.)

yeah that's fair enough, I don't mean to say that all riders of high powered sports bikes own them as status symbols, but it's always puzzled me a bit to see them slowly chug along with the rest of the traffic. it must get a bit boring not being able to get it out of second gear most of the time. it just seems a little overkill and not worth risking it to ride around the city. i understand the enjoyment and satisfaction of owning such a well oiled machine, though. at the end of the day, everyone has their own preferred style of riding, i just happen to enjoy getting a bike up into its powerband and through the gears

Which you can equally do on a thou.
