I have always wanted to flog a 750. I got to ride Flounders but with the headshake from the Rotors at 100mph, 120mph was all I was willing to do. Yeah the 750 didn't have that instant power the 1000 had but had enough in 1st and 2nd to keep those used to 1000s happy.
Thing with wheelies is that the CBRs always had a more forward bias even though one may not feel it in the ergos, but they always were known for refusing to wheelie.
JohnnyMac's CBR, from what I can tell from watching him, comes up with ease.

Arguably, the hottest chic on the net that nobody has ever heard of...
My Christmas gift to the forum.

I own a 1000cc because I've got a small penis and need to overcompensate via my literbike.
In all seriousness, there are positives and negatives regarding the three classes. And this thread is not going to give you a clear answer.
My suggestion. Look at your finances and then do some pricing comparisons. Then look at resale value. Then get the best bike for your buck.
OR
Ignore all of the know it all weekend warriors on this forum (including myself) and pick the best looking bike with the color scheme you want. The bike that looks coolest to you will be the one that you ride the most. As a result it will turn out to be the best bike/cc class for you.

If this isn't one.....I dont know what you call it...
I think you call that a "bike night" bike.
-
Well Flounder, if the shoe fits...wear it proudly!
-
Its true.. you can get almost all of them to glow under the right conditions.
aka night and running the piss out of them.
By 'right conditions', do you mean doing roll-ons from Zanesville to Columbus on a hot summer evening, with the trip lasting about 35 minutes?!

I remember this ride. Putty and Flounder did not attend...neither did Pedro. We organized this ride from one BornSinner's parties, and I remember interest was low because of the possibilities for hangovers. I think this was the weekend before our Deal's Gap trip. Me, Brad, Carla, R6Chic, Satan, and CBRGirl went on this ride...and a bunch of strangers as well. Carla and Brad wore their leathers for the first time. I think Satan and CBRGirl turned off early...I don't recall seeing them at Indian Lake...
Anyway, as soon as we got on the back roads...a red VFR or Superhawk was out in front. We were doing maybe 70...then I had enough. Like all of our rides...dirt or street...it's always a race...well, at least for part of the ride it is. This ride was uneventful...it was all flat/straight. We even took the freeway home.
I remember this older guy on the new zx-14 flew by everyone as we were slowing down to make a right...i guess he wasn't too interested in the turn He did manage to catch back up with us.
I read the guy's post on the other forum about this ride. I think there's always a fast group and a slow group. With that being said, I don't think anyone in the slow group goes the speed limit. I feel everyone that I've ever been on a ride with is fairly safe. Passing on a double is illegal...but we all do it. Passing multiple cars on a double is illegal. So, if you pass one...you might as well pass them all...right!? This guy should never go to Hocking Hills or on our Zanesville trip (Flounder and Putty know what I'm talking about!)
It sucks for that guy that he didn't have a good time. However, I probably wouldn't have a good time if I was on his ideal ride. I don't care to look at the flat farm scenery of eastern ohio. I don't care to 'cruise' on my SPORT bike.

your the phag
"you're" a phag and "you're" dumb.

Made you look. Anyway, Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is on tonight, 10pm.
It's in HD.
-
If it has a footprint gas pedal, I might be interested.
-
man two dudes on that bike with the hot undertail exhausts..
Get your head out of the gutter, phag.

beer...just beer.

I tried doing this to Putty's dirt bike...not once...but TWICE!!!

On the way to Happy Hollow dirt park, I found a pretty sweet road for the street bike.
Here's the google link:
The road was well-paved and free of debris. I wasn't the road for the entire length of the route that's mapped out on my google link, but the part I was on was pretty sweet - changing elevation, long sweepers and a few sharp bends. I think Putty will attest to this statement as well. Unless we get a warm day soon, I'll be hitting this up next year. But for all you hardcore riders looking to ride in the near future, regardless of temp, I'd recommend this road. It reminded me a little of 664 in Hocking Hills, only a better surface.

Happy Hollow was decent. The drag strip ended up being more fun than I expected. Putty usually rode on one wheel down the whole damn thing. Like Putty said, that place is all hill climbs besides for the drag strip and the track. There are 3 tough hill climbs on the left side of the track. Putty did one (show off!); I wussed out. One guy on a 700 Raptor tried it, he didn't make it...but surprisingly his quad didn't come tumbling down the hill. His buddy sped up around the side of it and helped him out before it was too late. I need to try this while I have my bent stem on.
Yeah, BrownBear got f'ed up. He was hurting so bad this morning that his wife had to put his socks and shoes on him so he could go to work (now that's love)! He said he could barely sit down all day...so he wussed out and went to the doctor. The doc touch his tail bone and it caused him so much pain that he fell to his knees. She (lucky him) said that he has a bruised tail bone. She gave him some vicodin (sp?) and some other anti inflammatory drug and told him to come back in a week if the pain persists. To his credit, he rode for a good 3 hours after this accident happened.
I like Wayne better myself...and the drive is probably shorter.
-
Thanks....I will be cutting away when I get up in the morn.
Damn Putty, I know I'm tough to follow...but you don't need to be spending all that money to keep up. Just ask...I'll slow down and wait!
-
I like the blue wheels with the white pinstripe.
This is the image that made me go out and buy my bike.
...and I still think this is the top stock paint scheme.
Other stock bikes that I liked:
Putty's gf's blue/white gxsr600 with the blue wheels...that was really nice.
I also like the yellow/black R6 with the flames that someone posted a while back.

But doesn't the California coast get its water from the Pacific Northwest (Alaska)...hence cold water? So, how are the winds warming up over this generally cold water?
-
Strange...normally winds travel west to east. Here it looks like they're traveling hard west, then north...then back east.

We all should do something for the OSU > Penn State game on October 27. That should be a good game.
I'm going to this game...
-
You hate OSU... No riding for me on Sunday.. recovery day from drinking sat night.
You're right...I do hate O$U. I like tailgating and I like any/all of their opponents. Go Spartans!
-
I'm not sure I'm going to ride saturday. I want to watch football and possibly tailgate for the o$u game. I might hit Wayne up on Sunday though...or ride street.

Zorro,, what kind of bow hunting do you do. Compound or Crossbow
Compound...and shotgun/rifle. If I bong enough beers, I jump out of trees with a spear...Rambo-style
Smokin' chic...

She's cute...nice job. I still prefer Marzia Prince. But hey, that's why I posted the link and you didn't.
