What do you drive?

[JohnnyVegas]

Oh I didnt mean it "that" way... was just assuming the wifey wouldnt like 2 young hot chicks showing up on your arms to party lol

That is what I meant too. Nothing carnal. I make sure I never hang with hot chicks. But I do like hanging out with guys that are with hot chicks. A fine line, but one I don't cross. I am always on good behavior, because I like being married...this time. Heh.

thts a tidy wee 600, was thinkin of down grading my blade to an f4i or an rr to save on insurance

[JohnnyVegas]

I miss my bike. Normally I wouldn't mention it because it was so long ago, but seeing that CBR 600 reminds me of how much fun I had on mine. This town is horrible for riding now.

The Porsche looks sorta like a GT2 with that wing, but it isn't a turbo. She is happy with a measly 300 hp (or whatever it makes).

Lige was good two years ago... the economy has decimated my small business. Keeping the chin up and moving forward. That which doesn't kill us, blah, blah, blah.

just noticed the wing is part of the aero kit and there is no rear brake ducts my mistake. You are not the only one that was affected Johnny more then a few including yours truly had to have a major lifestyle change.

Had that bike but a 99 no difference except decals. Thing was a beast had the Yosh RS3s on it remapped FI 110 hp at the rear wheel dynoed and 92 ft pds of torque. Wheelie time son for blocks haha. Had that thing one night at 170 mph on the eway like the jackass I was at 19 yrs old. Was skinny as heck too at 160 pds that bike is a pig and the heat soak will burn your legs in the summer from the twin.

too right!! has to be up there with the most expensive countries in the world.
the cops kept hassling me to get the reg changed over to irish plates, i was forever getting pulled over cos i was driving late at night after my doorman job. one levelled with me and said he didnt care tht if i was living down here and driving it but if traffic corps repeatidly saw me they would try to have it impounded, he even advised me to change my route home from work each night! nice to knw theres afew decent cops around, he was more interested in talking 0-60's and bhp and how i got the wheels to fit it lol

[JohnnyVegas]

... must be great having cheap petrol

At 8mpg I can't drive my car as a daily even when fuel is only $3.40 a gallon. Not in this economy.

Ive always had a thing for the tl1000. Thats just a pretty a$$ bike man. Never owned/rode one but man theyre nice. As previously mentioned, i have an 07 yamaha r1. I suppose since the r1 has almost 160rwhp, its a goog thing i waited instead of the tl's 110hp. Kind of makes u think bout the advancements on these machines. Ten years ago, that 110hp was reign superior, now its like 175hp...whats next?

I remember when I was riding (a long time ago) Cycle World would do a yearly issue where tuners would build bikes to try and go 200 mph. There were turbos, GSX motors bored out ungodly amounts, and all kinds of other Frankenbikes. They always broke during testing because of their high state of tune and sucked in the track and street portions of the test. Now it is possible to buy a bike that will go 200 mph STOCK. Just amazing.

Yea, that's what alot of people call them. The torque on it is insane compared to my other bikes. I love it though, and if I ride smart then usually everythings good. Can't wait for the snow to be gone now...

vtwins torque is not something to be reckoned with
