    So its not a sports bike. Its a drag bike....
    It's more a sportsbike than anything road going. Dedicated sports...motorsport covers a wider range than just your view.

    It certainly isn't a cruiser.

    I guess I will give you that one. I was thinking sports was for road going sports bikes like GSXR, R1, Blade and as well as track bikes. But fair nuff. Drag bike is a sports bike too

    Don't be a fucken weirdo. We have to argue about this for days, and neither should consider what the other is actually saying.

    It's a cool looking bike too. NOS doesn't appeal to me, and I thought the price was the number you had to ring, but some of those Porche/Harleys are cool.
    And a good punter can do unHarley quick things with one.

    Nice out of the box thinking but.....Sportsbike is more thought of as a type or design of bike more than what it is used for I think.

    Trying to show your Motorcycle intellect by this type of fringe thinking and calling a Bucket Racer MX bike drag racer or Burts Indian special a Sportbike even though kind of right because its involved in a motorsport at the time may result in you looking more stupid and see you being laughed away from the event itself..

    Bullshit, 'sportsbike' is a marketing word in descriptive terms these days. But I maintain that a race bike is a sportsbike no matter what discipline.

    Just the 45degree steering angle makes you think, just put a bigger engine in a car.

    Or spend the money on a brand new Fireblade, a new dirtbike of your fancy, a Trials bike, a bucket racer, a new set of riding kit and either a cheap van to haul it or a boozey trip to Philip island GP.

    Or go ahead and buy some poxy 12year old hardley you could use once a year at the port road drags and spend the rest of the year saving to fix it.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    There are a few drag strip around the country, and they all have regular events. If drag racing was my thing, I'd get more days on it than I do the sidecar in fact.

    So, what is your point exactly?

    Im more interested in reading and discussing thought out post reply's not reading post after post of pointless dribble from a person who classes anyone's view if different to their own as bullshit.

    Especially when we both are in fact saying the same type of thing about marketing words type and design of modern Sportsbikes.Shame you missed that for the sake of being a argumentative dickhead.

    Have a nice life
