About $3500 over priced.

This is cool and all, but:

A very good example of a bike not being worth what it cost you.
$5k for the café one would be good buying....

Yeah .. I was sort of making a joke .. just in case you missed that ...
Yes. Lot's of people have more bike than they can handle ..
Yes, they are much more agile than they appear .. especially the later model ones ... I never underestimate a wing on the road - I wait and see what the rider can really do ...

Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Agree. This is more like it I reckon!

Agreed that looks cool.
It'd sound good too with a TZ engine in it.

Don't talk shit. Want me to point out the handling faults with the Gixxer thou I last had? Sweet. Even with $4k worth of suspension in it, balancing turn in ability with mid corner stability and front grip is like tight rope walking on piano wire. Keeping the rear tall enough that it didn't wanna run wide under power meant sacrificing traction.
It went like fuck and I'm a long way off a great pilot or suspension tuner, but the geometry needed more attention than my skills were capable of.
But, there are bikes that ya get on and they do their shit nigh on perfect it seems.
So fucken sue me for not celebrating mediocrity.
OK well here's one

Now I don't actually think the price is beyond reason. I do however think it is widely optimistic that someone would want that Vetter like fairing.

Just because you bike is 30 yes old does not make it worth 5k

Fuck me. You should be doing Rossi's job. How's your side car build going? No doubt we'll see every company coming after you for your design and engineering expertise. As I said Drew. You're a dreamer. You read too much, but lack the skill and results to back up your drivel. Stick to $200.00 heaps of shit with knobblies.
You stated that if it aint a Gixxer, I don't think it handles well. I gave you my experience with a Gixxer and flat out said that I wasn't able to make it do what other people could.
I fail to see what you are now getting at, other than trying to get a rise out of me for saying I thought the XB Buells are heavily flawed.
The sidecar build is coming along well, thanks for asking. Lack of talent not withstanding, it should be capable of good results.
