So I'm getting a motorcycle...
 

A cheap one...less than 5 grand if possible. I want an enduro/super motard style bike I think...anyone here have/had/ridden one of those? Or any bike advice at all other than the usual safety shit...Ive had a motorcycle before that I rode on the street regularly so Im aware of that shit.

crotch rocket/ sport bikes are out of the equation.

get a sport bike.

:)



lol but in all seriousness, why are they out of the question? you'd have a gas saver and something that's really fun to play with on the weekends. you can find some nice bikes for under 5 grand. i payed a total of 1500 for my 86 gixxer, and it runs flawlessly.

the only bikes ive ever driven are duc's. if you dont want a sport bike get a monster. its kinda sport bike-esque(sp?) and they still really fuckin go and are a great gas saver and almost as comfortable as a chopper.

OH...

Hell...

Yeah....

V-10
500HP

Damn....just....DAMN!!!!:eek:

not guna lie....ill willingly be the first to try and hit that 750mph mark :P

i took my motorcycle safety course on a suzuki 200cc dual purpose bike. nice lil bike for learning on but thats about it. it probably accelerates just as fast as a honda civic.

I have ridden motard bikes and they are fun, but are not comfortable at all for even moderately long rides. The seat is the same as the dirt bikes and those arent ment to be sat on hardly at all. If you dont want a sport bike look into some cruiser or muscle cruisers even. I love my Vstar 1100 its quick enough to have fun and do burnouts etc... but not enough to kill myself.

PS-I knew the moped idea wasnt gonna last, LOL.

/\/\ yeah... oh well...lesson learned.

Tomahawk = death


I imagine 0-60 in .75 would be very Uncomfortable.

I think I found the bike I want. 2002 suzuki DZR400S...Athena 440 kit, stainless skidd plates...extra large capacity tank(new never installed) Edelbrock Carb and only 900 miles on it. for less than twice what I paid for that moped. If all goes as planned I should have it in my garage tomorrow or Sunday.

/\/\ what the FUCK is that?

I think its a homo parking meter:confused:

LMAO.

It's some kind of new bike that makes no emissions..lol, you lean forward and it goes.

You NEED this :D

I want this

but sadly, Ill never have the cojones to ride on the street

I would gladly take either one of those bikes. however this purchase is an attempt at money savings actually...50-60mpg...cheap insurance...with some good fun mixed in of course.

That ducati is sick!

Look into a used DRZ400, Ive heard and read some great stuff about them, and they are probably in your price range.

/\/\thats what I am getting...just not the motard version...there is a 2-3 thousand dollar premium on those.

Nice. We'll obviously need some pics :D

BTW, this is my new toy, got it last weekend.

Mines just a baby crf230f

yeah some 16 or 17 year old invented it.

Well I leave today at 4 to go to Indiana to pick the bike up.

2002 Suzuki DRZ400S, 800 miles on it...440 Athena big bore kit.. Edelbrock carb and a few other goodies as well. damn im excited.

All I can say is please were a HELMET!
