    In the car world, we laugh at Japanese attempting to produce sports cars. The same must go for bikes. So basically, most of your guys riding gixxers are riding 2 wheeled WRX's.
    Funnily enough, the Japanese couldn't really give two shits what people outside of their domestic market think... Occasionally they'll produce something like the 787B just to amuse themselves, and take the piss out of the Europeans (as far as they're concerned, the yanks are just there to take money off), which of course scares the crap out of the Europeans so they ban it.

    Another example is the GP7... took Japanese tyres to make it a winner (actually, that's not true, took shit European tyres to hamper the Japs enough for the Europeans to win).

    So basically, the Japanese don't care what you stupid Europeans think, you're just an inferior race that's only there to make money off. They're proven in F1 , endurance racing, and GP bike racing that they can win if it amuses them so.

    Ahhh... see, that's where you're going wrong.

    Look, I'll spell it out in simple terms so you can understand.

    Cruisers are very much the minority. Cruiser riders know this, and accept the inevitable cruiser baiting, bashing, and pissing that comes from the sportsbike fraternity - most of which is good natured.

    Sometimes the cruiser bashing gets a bit over the top and repetitive. At the time of starting this thread (a year ago!!!!), the vast majority of new threads in the cruiser section were in fact cruiser bashing.

    For a laugh, I took quotes from several of these threads, and changed them over to a sportsbike baiting thread.

    The vast majority of people understood the joke, but there was an inevitable few that took umbrage.

    Get over it, points, it was a joke that was well understood at the time.

    If you don't feel welcome, you don't need to stay.
    Ya can't pull out now you sprotsbike-bashing, tassell-wearing, arm-chair-riding bigot.
    You've upset a few people and suddenly it's all a joke.
    Where's the courage of your convictions...display your narrow-minded bias with pride!!!!

    Naap guys, it was just a piss-take! Good on ya Virago for having a sense of humour, I thought you were flaming but your good-natured green bling response to my red rep spelt it out perfectly.
    Guess we shouldn't be so sensitive eh!!

    Geeeeze what a laugh to read the start to this thread.....S@%T i mean i have riden with with so many bikes and so many types your mind would boggle to try to remember them all and not once have i ever heard Cr@p like that outa any of them.........I remember the largest ride was Gold Coast to Phillip Island in Oz, 8000kms round trip 44,500 bikes at the track, and you could not name a bike type that wasnt there, everyone i met had fun and talked about everything........

    Quote from Virago
    "I feel I should have some affinity with all fellow bikers, but it is hard to open my mind to differing views."

    Your ride TWO WHEELS who cares what the frig it is or how you ride it????
    THATS YOUR ANSWER!!!!!!!
    GET OVER IT

    ps: My profile pic shows my garage has a good collection of both cruisers and sports, does that make me a hypocrite or a motorcycle enthusiast?
