    Needs a tractor seat, don't you reckon Steam?

    That SR250 of yours looked good today mate. You've gotta try hard to impress my youngest boy (he normally only likes Ducatis) and he wanted to get all over your bike!
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    I would have thought it was difficult to make a Busa look any uglier, but somehow he's managed it. Perhaps Suzuki will hire him to re-style the K7 Thou ...

    There's a naked busa supposed to be coming out at the end of this year... but that looks really nice...
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    Heheheh, looks way better than stock!

    The Suzuki GSX1300R is fast, yes, but it's not beautiful enough to deserve the name Hayabusa.

    It looks awesome... but what I wanna know is how on earth you'd ride it?
    That seat is way too low to use the gear lever and brake pedal surely?

    Now, those Hayabusas were beautiful for sure, but too lightly made and got blasted out the sky by F4U's and P-51's.

    From what I read they kicked some arse early on, until the F4Us and P51s were introduced... by then they'd run out of their crack pilots and were relying on new recruits with barely any training, so they were toast, both mechanically and in pilot skill levels.

    Much prettier than any toy-looking Mustang, though
