I roll a Yamaha YSR50. It needs a lot of work though, so its not really that fun to ride. I have been thinking about buying an R1 or ZX10 this spring though, I need to satisfy my need for a bike this year I think.

Yeah, went 9.72. I raced it just how I bought it...set up for spray(but I ran it on motor). A lot of things have been changed on it since then, so we'll see what happens on the track.

Nice bike, but why's it pink? Is it yours? I'm confused.

[KA-T_240]

Yes the pink bike is cheapsrt's bike. It's not the pink one that been around for a while he just started painting it last summer.

[2wheeler]

It's pink because he destroyed all of the original plastic. I like how the driveway is pink too.

I'm looking at a Leo Vince slip on for my bike. Any thoughts on that brand? I'm looking at the first one on this page.

Never really had first hand experience with Leo Vinci. They look like a quality brand. You'd be the only one with that pipe in the area.

I bought this today, should be a perfect first bike. Looking forward to riding with you guys this season.

Your link just goes to Wheels' main page.

That's what I bought, a 2004 Kawasaki Ninja 500r. It's silver with orange instead of the red. Wheels must've taken it off the site since I bought it.

^That should be a great first bike. How many miles on it?

I finished putting the R6 back together this past weekend. I bought a set of mint left fairings for cheap on Ebay and it's back to looking good as new. I'm so fucking sick of staring at the damn thing every day when I come home though. I wanna ride:icon_shaking:

my friend has the 93' CBR 900rr and I love that thing... he has a erian racing pipe and that thing sounds like a bute... Although he had to get it rebuilt this summer, and couldnt ride the whole season, cause university motors sucked and all the parts were back ordered... he wants to sell it for $4000 and I am thinking of buyin it... but dont know if it is worth it.

That bike only books for $3585. You can easily get a newer, better bike for $4k.

I think Kelly Mullaney is selling her late 90s (97-99?) GSXR 600 for around that price. It would prolly be worth your time to take a look.

I was watching some bike vids tonight and came across this guy. I think he's got a death wish:eek:
