Gixxer owners, different from "normal" people?

[madbikeboy]

Real simple:

The gixxer thou has been regarded the best inline thou for ages, (I dont want to argue about the why's and hows, it's the common theme in all shoot out comparrisons is all I'm saying), so the idea seems to be that owning one makes you the best. This will change, (if the K8 aint something very special given the gains the other manufacturers have made for their latest releases), and so will the perception of it's riders.

I had one, fuckin loved it, had some race success on it, and my head swelled visibly. I'd have another one though, christ it was a great bike.

Somebody give me their K2!!!

Mines on the market, check out my profile for a picture. PM me if you're interested.

Okay, been considering this at a deeper level than cheap to fix after binning, and the penis extention thing (which gixer riders don't need as a prerequisite for riding is larger than normal manhood and testicles).

Look at the alternatives. Honda CBR's. Girl's bike. If I wanted to ride a CBR, I'd probably also own a Mondeo wagon. It does everything really well, but it's dull. It's like screwing a hot accountant (there's no such thing btw).

Kawasaki ZX10R/ZX6R. Umm, nice bikes, but they seem to throw people down the road a lot. This is like a bitch mistress who gets suicidal or homicidal, and it's hard to which is when. The 10R is like owning a HSV, with the traction control off, in the rain. It's like fucking your bosses daughter, you do it for thrills, but it's not a long term plan.

R1/R6. IMHO, the only viable alternative (until recently). But the R6 is gutless, my RGV250 had more poke. The early R1's would become violent slappers at a moments notice. The latest is worthy of attention, especially in black. The R1 is like the best bits of a WRX Sti, but with the same stupid backwards baseball cap and the baggy pants showing your underwear elastic. It's the hot chick at a party, who might be good in bed, but she might have herpes...

Ducati? Slow. Expensive. A fashion statement. This will be parked up next to the wife's SUV, next to the BMW/Porsche midlife crisis. It's not as good as you think it would be, it'd be like Cameron Diaz, only to discover she didn't like sex. But still expected the attention and pressies.

Aprilia? The thinking man's V-twin. Like owning an Alfa 147 GTA. Crap for all the same reasons, but still a load of laughs. The hot receptionist who is great in bed, and low maintenance, but still has a sense of humour.

Harley. Like owning a tractor. Like fucking an ugly fat chick with big tits. It's really not worth it.

New RC8 or Superduke. Like an Evo10 + WRX Sti, both on laughing gas. This is the perfect woman who is fun, sassy, faithful, and good looking.

And then there's the gixer. 20 years worth of evolution. Style that makes sense. Handling and brakes that are commensurate with horsepower. A good fit for most of us. the 600 is the perfect allrounder. The 750 is the even betterer all rounder. The 1000 is faster than a Hayabusa except in top speed. It wheelstands well. They're mechanically indestructable. The 600 is like a WRX. The 750 is an WRX STi. The 1000 is an EVO FQ360. This is the perfect woman who is a long termer, into kinky sex, and who is still good looking after all these years.

MBB.

WOW - that was DEEP man!

You still refer to your gixxer as "the evil bitch" - doesn't fit very well with your comments here...

I have to say, never a more accurate, true or valuable post has EVER been posted on this forum or ever will be.

Best post ever. Period.

Gee mister, you sure must have ridden a lot of bikes to assess them like that!!

I'd be more worried about his unofficial job record, considering the objects of comparison.

You need to get out more.
Or summat.

It's like screwing a hot accountant (there's no such thing btw).

Says you.
While this was a post you obviously spent some time on (and it was quite entertaining), you rendered your whole diatribe untrustworthy with this one statement.
You need to get out more.
Or summat.

I don't know many accountants (and many of those I do know are your archetypal, nerdy, fish-like humanoids), of the few I know, three of the female persuasion are definitely hot. I wouldn't be married to one of them if she didn't have attributes other than a fat salary.

Or were you talking about the male ones? None of them are hot...

Bah! You're just jealous I have a Gixxer Thou AND an Evo IX.

:P

Yeah, that's it.
Obviously.
And my wanger is very tiny as well.

She's evil, her kinkiness seems to involve harder and faster a lot of the time.

Umm, I've ridden a few bikes. I own three. Haven't ridden that many Harleys though, perhaps less than 10, but I'm a fast learner as to what doesn't thrill me...

I was engaged to an Accountant, she was good looking, sometimes kinky, but hotness turned into ice. Maybe the Vifferbabe is the exception to the rule...

Did you honestly think the 08 thou was dull ?

It seems to have the power (was the best in a few magazine shoot outs) but the biggest difference I found was that the front end felt planted and not airy fairy and vague like the Gixxer.

Oh - heres one hot accountant too.

[Mikkel]

That's not evil!

Besides, there's a limit to how fast and how hard you can go anyway - and it has nothing to do with kinkiness in my experience.

Likewise, turbine smooth, 'sniky' gear-shift and scads of plastic covering the 'mechanical gubbins don't do it for me....

Each to their own but I don't knock another mans choice of scoot.

(Hell, if we all had H-Ds and tassles how would I look cool??)
