so you ran with hyder? i ran jr. for a few years, then rode with F&S in SR. in 2000. then it was either really go hardcore and run 2-3 bikes or do something else, so i switched to drag racing. those willards are FAST

there's the rice paddy down here by campus.

willard is a great kid. we used to mix it up on 80's back in the day. let me know when you're goin riding, i'm always lookin for people to ride with. beautiful bike too btw.

i look at all that when i consider the "best bike" i guess it's more of the "best package". contingency, initial price, reliability, handling, etc. etc.

very possible. i've seen some guys who race the WERA Clubman class(pieced together singles in small frames) that run XR650's with full FI systems. it's basically just a kit that you wire in yourself. it'll take some time.

well yea, 90% of street riders will never see the true potential of one of these bikes. but he asked what the best bike was in my opinion. I have a racer's standpoint and therefore think as a racer. even for street riding i would want something that i know is the bomb on the track, as i'm an aggressive twisty rider on the street as well. basically, for the street it's all about comfort and looks.

i thought it was brock. couldnt remember his last name though

that's why i'm saying check out the amateur stuff. there's a reason why the amount of gixxers highly out number the other bikes. if you want pro, then look at the privateers. suzuki stands behind their product and it's a great product. they also dont lie to their customers about new bikes like yamaha has this past year... you cant compare the haydens or disalvo or hacking with the supersport/superstock stuff since they are running full factory rides. privateers are where it's at to truly see what's the best.

yea it's been discussed way too much.

i call spies winning 6 straight manhandling, especially when he's winning in the 3 second range. yamaha has rossi.....and even then he's not winning this year. suzuki has only been in motogp for 3-4years. Go to a non-ama event and you'll see the big difference. hondas are almost non existent now as well as kawis. Suzuki is THE best bike on the market 600 or 1000.

motor grenaded and shrapnel hit him in the chest.

Shell Rotella! it's made for diesel trucks but is the bomb in motorcycles and cars as well. we've been running it in racecars and bikes for a few years now. i run k&n oilfilters since they come with a predrilled nut for safety wiring already on them.(not cheap at all though)

idk, i believe that award goes to the EVO....

it's just that the europeans know what cars should REALLY be. hp/tq means jack shit. it's about something than can accelerate hard, brake hard, and put up 1g on the skidpad. roadracing is where it's at. screw 1/4miles and ovals.

you dont know much.....he's gettin manhandled by spies on the other yoshi.....there's a reason yamaha isnt in the superbike series. they admitted they wouldnt be competitive.

but stay away from bikes from a dig. the new gixxer's are runnin 9.8's.... edit-liter+bikes with good riders......

GSXR. if you ever go to a roadrace, you'll see that Gixxers dominate the paddock and the podium. Yamaha is a close second while Kaw and Honda are no where close.

nothin against street ridin, this is my first time in a few years without a street bike. i'm just tired of almost dieing because of some idiot in a cage.

rule #5, tracks are the safest way to ride.

some shots of the MX bike after i put on the supermoto wheels/fender this weekend. All I need now is my big brake kit and bark busters. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/willie.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/cool.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/chill.gif

saw an fzr today on 71 with a ninja in tail. i was in the green dakota, gave ya a thumbs up/wave. nice bike and glad to see some smart riders out and about.

http://www.roadracingworld.com/news/article/?article=25763 article from this last weekend. i'm in it for a sentence or two.

drawing only.

i've heard that this is impossible on another board. something about making HHO breaking a law of thermodynamics or something. after watching the video though....

some shots i just got from nelson. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/2825MG_2897.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/2825MG_2882.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/2825MG_2469.jpg
