Japa vs. American/Euro Rivalry!

[marty]

Remember a time when NZ scorned Japanese Imports!!! Now - you struggle to find a car that isn't

It all comes back to status.......and ego

hmmm - italian motorbike, holden station wagon, french bicycle (peugeot), american BMX bikes (GT and Haro)......

not much in the way of jappas at my house if anyone needs a respite (or maybe I just have an ego???)

I'm glad you asked...my opinion is from a 600+cc perspective remember.

Small bikes lack power (especially when you need to get around something quick- depends how you ride I suppose)
Small bikes are too light- hard to control in winds & rain.
Small bikes are a greater risk in the blindspot of a car.

There is an attitude that comes from riding a big bike that small bike riders don't seem to have- a respect for greater speed and power that can be used as an advantage in times of danger!

I wondered how long it would take to he who owns the bike that scares many a big bore bike to respond
