That looks great, what's tiers? Lol

Looks like someone is going to have a good time.

You don't have to agree with everyone else who wears that label on every single topic to be included as a member of that group. In the immortal words of Chris Rock "I've got some shit I'm liberal about, I've got some shit I'm conservative about"

If you do get a katana, do not take it to Coshocton... Cursed

Great point, too. Tried to convince my friend of this, and he insisted on something cherry with zero scratches... Wasn't a month later he high sided it in some weeds at a lower speed, scratched up the paint, broke the turn signal... Could've saved a grand on a similar bike that was already scratched.

Hayabusa is too slow, it barely gets out of its own way with a big guy on it. If he doesn't go for the MTT Y2K, at least get the Kawasaki H2R... You don't want guys on big powerful Harleys passing you....

Mtt turbine, perfect first bike. You're way too big for a little 1000 cc race bike... Everyone here is wrong, clearly you know more than the combined experience of this entire thread cause you've taken the BRC twice. (Honestly the person advising a bigger bike was probably advising a bigger "cruiser". You were riding a rebel, they thought you should be on a 883 Sportster, or a 700cc shadow rather than a 250cc cruiser)

Are you alive? Number Johnny five. Welcome

Right? What $8000 bike are we comparing this to?

Yo

He's had one birthday, yes. But what about Second birthday?

Well sure, you got the better part of a century of infrastructure built for that fuel...

Edison had Tesla to rip off...lol

There are a few challenges with implementation of an engine like this... Rotating surfaces, dynamic seals, etc... And the performance difference doesn't amount to much... With electricity making leaps and bounds, and forced induction getting better, there is little incentive to reinvent the piston pump...

Mine gets 30ish mpg in the dry and 40 or 45 in the rain. Corbin seat makes it comfy for long rides.

Input precision is the biggest reason smaller bikes are beginner friendly. Teaching a friend to ride this past summer, if he had a liter bike, he'd have launched it into his neighbor's ditch day 1.

Yeah, compared to one of the 10 fastest production bikes on the planet... It's not fast, but what is? It's plenty fast enough to pass most idiots on the road.

The only 250 I've ridden is a 2013 with a power commander, but at no time was it lacking the power to pass, even on a double yellow. Now if the "slow car" was doing 70... Then maybe?

Something extra fun about riding a slow bike fast.

I'm a fan of both... Nobody is eating anyone, they're called jokes and you can make them about your friends.

Awesome, thanks for the tips.

"Thank you! Really my requirements are dog friendly, yard, close to downtown as that is where Ill be working and just not hideous! I appreciate your help!!" Quoted

I have a friend moving that direction, she's having a tough time finding a pet friendly apartment around Clintonville, Marion Village, Old Towne East, Old North... If anyone can help, please let me know so I can forward the info to her.

I named my wifi SSID "Antimatter_Electron" so anyone suitably nerdy can guess the password.

CSC pretty much said what I was going to say. MIG with argon/co2 is what I use, it's cheap, and can accommodate a pretty wide range of projects. If you've got some coin to throw down and plan to do a lot of sheet metal, TIG is the way to go.
