Anti Jap bike crap

[Drew]

all the japs have ever done is copy.....
they haven't invented a thing...

It is not a question of whether the bikes are any better ,
it is whether the owners are.....

I put my money where my mouth is,
I try not to support copiers.

The owners of non jap bikes are better, because their bikes are not. Good argument.

I'm, a fan of old brit bikes, even though I'm 30 years or so late. Jappas have just made the same and better tech, cheaper and more efficient. Its passion/pride vs logic. Most motorcyclists have a reasonable amount of passion/pride, otherwise we'd all be driving camrys.

how the fuck am I sposed to cart dirt bikes round in a camry? (and dont give me none of that trailer shite neither, vannage FTW!)

Yeah, how often do you go into your shed, put the key in the bike and thumb the starter and the bloody Jap bike fires right up, regardless of how long it has been sitting there. Bloody Jap bikes that don't require a half day on the spanners before you ride.

Hell I heard that they don't even need their tyre pressures checking as the factory air is so good it does not alter, unlike that damp English air.

Thats the answer right there, if you do a ride with jappas and non jappas all the riders on jap bike will have to wait round for ages while the rest are getting fixed up along the way

You funny wee fella.

I'm thinking about your Softtail, surely it is a copy of a copy of a copy of a Harley ............

Plus it is full of Japanese bits .........

A: Its a cage
B: They have horrible front suspension
C: The gear box is no better
D: Often used as company rep-mobiles...
E: All of the above

I pick "E: All of the above"




Now THAT"S a problem You need to get that sorted...

You forgot:

D (+1): Can't find them in a carpark

Saw a poker run and a rally posters (two different events) today. American, European and British bikes only. WTF? Racist cunts (and don't they realise Britain is part of Europe?).

How 'bout someone runs a rally for Jap & Korean bikes only?

I say, I would never ride my British bike with American bikes. It might catch something. It's much better to segregate that sorta thing. You don't know what sorta things those jappa's are carrying as well.

Is this a bad thing then? http://www.americarna.co.nz. Or is it the problem that everyone else is invited to the party apart from the jappa's? Because that is a bit mean. Jappa's have feelings too.

I've heard it's best if you don't go to a Mothers' trackday on anything but a Massey Davidson...

So who did they copy to be able to make their bikes so reliable, cheap and fast? Certainly not Ducati (not cheap), the Americans (not cheap, reliable or fast) or British (not very cheap or reliable or fast)?

nah, its the tech they copied, you know, with the bit that goes up and down and the bit that spins round an round, almost like the guy who invented that should have patented it!

They are just being considerate - they understand that Japanese bike riders enjoy riding and prefer not to sit around all day waiting for spares with their mates.

Best to avoid that day entirely if ya can. Steel caps=bike boots. Leather vest=race suit. Denim jeans=knee sliders. Now ya might not think a harley rider had much call fo sliders, but quite a few of those guys crash, and there's a period of sliding along on the primary cover and left knee before the whales come to a stop.

Eight bikes crammed across the front row of the grid, and none of them with a clue.

I do wonder though, why do they race them? When they all say it's not about how fast you can go, but the ride instead. Hypocracy at it's finest.

Dunno - but that's a pretty good example of the reasoning why they don't want jap bike riders there.

[scracha]

Why not? People should go and do as they choose, just like you do.

How does it affect you?

Because "bubba" gets to go and I don't. I'm just left to hear his tales of how him and his mates "blew away some pooftah on a GSXR1000" round the twisties on their softtail. He calls me a fag because my exhaust doesn't sound like a fart from 1/2 Km away



I was thinking of taking my mates Honda PC800. It's American designed. In fact, it's more American than most bikes.

Oh, believe me - it would be no problem at all to not attend. Highly recommended, in fact, if you have even a smidgeon of commonsense.
It is the apparent fact that they run it as their idea of a race, will happily take your entry fee but refuse to pay you the winners prize if you're on a japper etc...

I wonder how I would get on, I have a honda goldwing that was made in the USA

well if its to the track you refer, poorly at best; regardless of where it was made

[Big Dave]

What I was trying to point out about Drew's post is that it's mostly about hanging out with like-minded individuals. Whatever the mind set.
And I don't mean gang related rides - legal clubs and events. Jap or whatever.
Some of it is based on bias - what matter of personal taste isn't?

If you want to go - get a bears bike. easy.
