[Two Smoker]

My KTM is fast when i compare it to the Moron few...But luckily the KTM aint known for being a fags bike.

Nah, KTM is known as a homos bike...

[boomer]

You honda riders are always confused about which hole your dip stick goes in.

Oh mate in the same hole as lubrication, but I recon you already know that, or you wouldnt be sitting so comfortably on ur arse in front of the computer posting this shit.

Mental facility- in your position supporting honda over their cbr1000rr seems illogical. While the model has drawn accolades for handling, mid range power etc and is arguably as iconic as the original zx10 and k6 [no argument from me], a huge question mark remains over the oil usage issue. Honda sites have threads running to several hundreds of pages on the problem, you are on your second cbr1000rr and experiencing the same issue. Oil usage on this model is a massive problem by any measure, and regardless of magazine tests or dynamic superiority must relegate the model to a very distant last place.

To provide background to oil usage. Of the following bikes I have owned non have required a top up between oil change:
Ducati monster 33K, z750 36K, k4 39K, k6 66k. Additionally a collegue owns a 97' cbr600 with over 120k and no measurable oil usage.

Im not supporting it, I just try to post every shoot out I come across. As much as I love it, I hate it almost as much since it has this massive problem. So if someone asked me if they should get a new blade i would say hell no, unless they were buying my bike at 100% retail price.=)

So, that's the new R1 in last place and the CBR in first in 2 US comparo's now

Depending on your definition of first and last really. What weighting did they place on reliability? Or should that not factor into a purchase decision?
