and what's the point. if I don't want or need the things the I4 liter offers... why get it?

I'm not dis'n the bike... it's just not the right one for me.


if I want torque down low I'll go with a V-Twin... which is why I'm considering the 1125R.

but really I just want something that has decent range, comfortable, doesn't feel overly wide. the weight is low so it actually feels just as nimble as my ZZR if not more so.


why don't you want a busa?
referring to the st thread? cause its fugly weighs a ton and every fucker and his mom has one. woot robot chicken II boba fett ftw!

ugh they are right next to bmw in fuglyness in my opinion. im not talking about the pods, or the ridiculous pontiac levels of plastic use or even the fairings. im talking about the frame. pure hideous. i know its all dual use as a gas tank and all but god is it awful looking.

to me anyway lol.

ehh I think they look alright... the swing arms are fugly... but after seeing Cutty's 1125R in person I like it alot... thought his blue frame is FUGLY.

and Marko's Firebolt is pure sex imo
