Not true. You are posting in the lounge section where anything goes.

And once again, you're the one who originally brought up living situations and houses, but I'll leave it at that.

yeah. I'm not positive I'd win in a straight line. my bike is geared down in the front sprocket (kind of equivalent to getting 4.10s on a GT). but in the twisties..viper boy doesn't stand a chance.

why would I lie about a COMMEN problem that happened to 2005-2006 vettes.

Stop trying to post an excuse for making yourself look stupid.

Fastest I've ever gone on two wheels is somewhere in the neighborhood of 55-70mph on my buddies 1200cc yamaha that he built before I wrecked it.

the fastest I have honestly been on a bike is 130. the wind is so loud its deafening. the power of the bike is pulling you away from your handle bars and the wind is pushing so hard that if you didn't tuck you would fly off. one little mistake and your life is over.

I love motorcycles..

I'd rather have a nice cruiser than a speedy little crotch-rocket. Dad's got a Boulevard C50T and I like that a lot better than his old Ninja.

ha ha ha....ok dude. I didn't know about the problem, you corrected me. Part of being a non douche bag is admitting when you are wrong, however just cause it's a COMMON problem still doesn't mean it happened to you.

you guys got me on misspelling common.

One of the main reasons i got rid of the vette was because a lot of problems i was getting with it. But the majority of my problems was because I was one of the first c6 z06 owners. in 07-08 the majority of the problems were corrected.

Now my viper I have been having a bit of tranny issues.

BULL...........****. Stop using the fact that Zig doesn't like you to justify your bragging. Nothing personal man, but I'm not going to accept excuses. You could have just said 'I live in my parent's house while they are gone because they don't want to leave the house empty' and that would have been fine and completely understandable and you wouldn't be catching half the **** you're catching from some of us.

Let's just end it there. Like I previously stated, I have no problem with you and I mean no disrespect. I'm just trying to explain my point of view.

With that being said, I've got a buddy that has a GSXR 600 or whatever the hell they're called and he was doing stoppies, wheelies, and speeding up and down the road in front of his house one day and it scared me to death. Worries the **** out of me to watch that. I hated it. And no, no one was on the roads when he was doing it.

And Ryan, I heart you.

I kind of agree with you on the problems. I've had a few issues with my '05 Mustang and I should have gotten an '06 or an '07 to make sure those little kinks were worked out, but I couldn't pass up my '05 because it was EXACTLY what I wanted. But it doesn't matter. I'll just take out all the stock parts that are fucked up and upgrade them to something better.
