  1. Eh, I'd be hard pressed to say that an inline 4 is like a 2 stroke, and there are lots of different V-twins.

    Assuming your talking about a real V-Twin (liquid cooled, 4 valves per cylinder, 10k+ redline) it all depends on what your comparing, Hell I can start my 'Bus off on a moderate incline just by slipping the clutch, it's got plenty of TQ at 2500rpms and I usually cruise around town around 2000 RPMS with no problems.

    Lets take a 1000cc Twin, and a 1000cc I4, the twin will have 2 x 500cc cylinders, while the I4 will have 4x250cc cylinders, and the twin usually has a longer stroke, longer stroke = more TQ at a lower given RPMs, it also means more rotating mass, therefore harder to spin fast due to the extra stress on components.

    There really isn't any advantage of one over the other, you just have to keep the R's on the I4 a little higher to produce the same TQ as the long stroke twin of the same displacement.

  2. nah, I didn't get a new bike. This guy had a chrome skull on the front fender, a giant 'super man' logo on the windshield. And all kinds of other stick on gadgets. Now when he left, first thing he did as soon as it started was hold it wide open for about 2 min. Then for the next 5 before he left he did it spuratically untill he left. Then he almost dropped it backing it out of the spot. This had to be his first time on a bike, total noob. No gear other than his jacket, dew rag and sunglasses. We followed them up the road this dude almost bit it several times. Not to mention the redline starts slipping the clutch.

    Total squid wanna be.

  3. you show up to the bar, day after Halloween, on your brand new 08 'busa, with your brand new Suzuki Racing jacket, and decked from head to toe in BeDazzeled Ed Hardy shit? How about if you take every drunk as fuck bleach blonde in the bar out to oogle over your bike?

    Just wonderin.

  4. or buy and iphone and post whore all day;) even while driving:D actually i used to drive a truck for our company and i would check up on stuff in between stops.

    Guilty. Not while driving Semi, but while driving my cars. I'm a little to cautious to post/text while driving 80k down the freeway :eek: and I only use the headset/bluetooth if I'm driving the semi too.
