quote:The only 'rice chopper' type bike that i found "sexy" was an old 1980s Ducati that a coworker of mine owned at one point. It looked super.Well, Ducati is an Italian brand, so technically its not a rice chopper, but their sportsbikes are indistinguishable from Jap brands to most people. quote:I thought I was the only bike nut hereWell, I have only become one over the past few weeks quote:Start modest and develop your riding skills before jumping on a race bike. Most young riders simply don’t have the skills to ride them properly and they unavoidably crash them on first year.Yes, the bike laws here, in the first year only allow newbies to ride bikes with an engine capacity of less than 650cc and also of certain minimum power/weight ratio (ie. not race bikes)... quote:If you worry to much about the danger then it is a good indication that you may not be suited to ride motocycles.You need little insanity in your character to want it otherwise stay away and stay safe.Some of my uni friends ride motocycles out of necesseity ie. they cant afford to purchase and run a car, but all who I know owns a motorcycle loves it. One of my 'philosophies', is that a man should try everything (reasonably) in his lifetime, and while Im still unmarried and dont have kids, I figure I gotto give it a try.....Im still making up my mind though, I might not find it very attractive when I the do learners course, and end it there.

I suspect these 'rice choppers' would rape any Harley (or the bikes you posted) from point A to point B or around a racetrack, but probably not in a straight line or the decibel count. And I would rather be seen in a tight bikini, rather than one of those.... On a side note, how mad (good) does this sound: Acc: Hey mum, Im going out tonight Mum: Are you taking the Camry? Acc: No, Im taking the 'Blade (Fireblade) LOL, too good

Hey guys and gals, just thought I might start a new thread and my latest topic of interest - Sports Bikes I have always had an appreciation for the way motorcycles accelerate and how much fun they are, but have also been aware of the fact that becoming a regular bike rider, one is almost guaranteed having a serious accident, if not death. Anyhow, a few weeks ago, a couple of my friends came over with their new bikes, one riding the Suzuki GSX-R1000, voted internationally as the best (as a sports-bike). I asked for a ride, and I must say, I was blown away! These things accelerate with venom and rev to 15-16 grand (not this particular one, but the other guys, a GSX-R600). The GSX-R1000 has a 4-cyl 1ltr engine that developes around 120KW (cant remmember exact figure) and only weights around 165KG! I mean, my Camry develops less than 100KW and weights over a tonne. So, since then I have seriously started contemplaiting getting a bike licence, with the only problem, being the fact that it really is a dangerous recreation, no matter how careful one is. But they p!ss all over any super sports car when it comes to acceleration, and cost pennies in comparison. The Suzuki GSX-R1000 costs US$10000. And many also look downright sexy. Post you thoughs here, while taking a look at these: http://bikepoint.ninemsn.com.au/content/amcn/ComparoDumb-DumberVIa.jpg Top 4 sports bikes comparison http://www.motorcycledaily.com/gsxr1000side2.jpg The Suzuki GSX-R1000 http://www.amasuperbike.com/image/ivy954ft.jpg And my fave - The Honda CRB-954RR 'Fireblade' (a little less powerful and lighter than the Suzuki)

Sip, did you consider perharps getting the Toyota Landcruiser instead of the Blazer

quote:It was just that one time in Utha... oh and this other time where my 4x4 control module failed (some computer which controls the transfer case). But I only have 25K miles on it. I wouldn't keep it much after 100K miles ... especially the way I am using it Bro, these are major failings, and the car is only 1 year old (2001 model?). I mean, in Sept 2000, my father bought a brand new Toyota Hilux 2WD utility (2.7ltr 4cyl). After about 6 months I had a major frontal accident in it. And despite this, and the fact that it gets worked hard (very hard, once we loaded it with 1.7T, the max is 1T, the rear wheel flaps(?) were dragging along the ground and there was hardly any traction in the front), it has not had a SINGLE major or minor failing. Movses, is right Toyota rules, thats why im not scared of forking out AUS$25000 on a 10 year old Toyota Supra.....

well, its a shame no one, turned up, just me and Rubo, and he soundly thrashed me

Go to 'Beginner' and then room 'Pristine Palace', only 20 people there.

quote:For the rest of the gang here can we meet tonight at 8pm pecific,11 east at yahoo at kangaroo court if full at frog pound? Sweet, your five hours ahead (or actually 19 hours behind us). So I will be there, in 20 mins, but both rooms you specified were full!

And things are only set to get better, with a mad car early next year, and my favourite night club set to re-open. I am allready compiling the CD's im going to listen to in the car, currently doing a Japanese Techno mix (very nice, fast) for Saturday night racing quote:And on top of that, you were munching in the car! mmmm, sudjukh

quote:Accelerated, you must be a very attractive guy, for a classy woman in tight pants leaning against a signpost apparently waiting to be picked up, to repeatedly show you her pink underwear, lucky you! Well, I certainly find myself attractive...LOL. But on this particular afternoon, I hadnt shaven for a week, my hair was messed up and I was wearing clothes I wear at home, so I very much doubt she was attracted to me . quote:Hehehehe ... either that or she was a "pro" No, she looked too good for a 'pro' street chick, maybe an escort, but not someone who 'works the streets'. And this was 5 in the afternoon, too. I figured she probably just needed a lift somewhere... quote:I'd say you definitely got your xmas present early this year I reckon! quote:I never understood how he could know when I was planning to take him to the vet, which happened once a year at the very most. Only then he would refuse to get in the car. He would actually try to run and hide from me.We got a (very) large male German Shepherd, and he is happy to go anywhere, to leave the house. He terrorises all the animals at the vets and the vets themselves, and all he has on his mind is sex, like the owner, I guess

Funny thing happened this afternoon.... I was basically sitting in my car waiting to pick up my mum from the train station. I left my place a little early so i could feast on a sudgukh, while waiting. So I get there 10 mins early, and a few minutes later, there is this girl/young woman (prob. aged 20-22) crosses the street to my side, apparently waiting for someone to pick her up. She's very well dressed, nice tight white pants and top, and classy sunnies. Standing about 5 metres away from the car, leaning on a signpost and looking in my general direction (I cant tell if at me, because of the sunglasses). So there I am, munching at my sudgukh and staring right back at her. After a few minutes, LOL, she starts playing with her zipper (pants), and then unzips, to the point where I can clearly see her pink underwear, and zips back up....LOL This **** teasing continued for 5 mins, during which I though of driving up to her, and asking if she wanted a lift. But I decided not to, for a number of reasons I need not go into. But I must admit the whole affair was pretty damn funny, as my mum arrived and got into the car, I did a nice U-turn burnout right in front of her (in a Camry LOL) with the satisfaction that I still had half a sudgukh to go.....

I've hardly ever bothered to cook apart from the odd scrambled eggs with tomatos and zharit kartoshka one of my old favourites. Though I can see myself being a good cook if I put my mind to it. The downside is, if a meal doesnt turn out well, then the clean up can be very expensive .

Oh man! It sux when your parents cant (or in the case of my father, wont) cook .

....thats are a relief, I thought the US government had completelly gone loony... [ December 17, 2002, 02:45 AM: Message edited by: Accelerated ]

quote:it is stil mystery for me, why Ter Petrosyan resigned.Wasnt there an attempted coup that basically made him understand how unpopular he had become? I was actually surprised that he wasnt lynched, because he was so badly hated....

quote:Question for everyone !!!What do you see your self doing in Armenia – what position would you think you qualify for in Armenian government – or what business do you think you can do in Armenia. What makes you most qualified for it. What changes would you make in Armenia or haw can Armenia and Armenians in Armenia profit of you or your work. I think I am best qualified to be the head of the millitary. Pretty much know millitary history inside out and have been to paintball skirmish a few times . Anyhow, shortly after taking over the millitary , I would organise a coup and establish a millitary dictatorship. Needless to say, Martin will be sent straight to the guillotine for a public execution (a la Robespierre, LOL). As for the rest of you, better start begging now....

quote:About the next part, don't expect too much excitement. OOOooooooohhhhhhh!

quote:and looks much looser in this latter pic certainly...still I sense she is a bit stuck up...LOLLOL, well whats the achievement in getting something out of a loose chick? Also, that photo was taken at the end of the night (the other in the beggining) so she's had a few drinks . quote:Even when I was a child though I had the reputation as the only one in the entire family to be able to stand up to her. Yeah, Im in a sort of similar situation, my mother can be very harsh to my dad when he does something she doesnt like, but she hardly complains to me if I do something bad. Also, my dad relies on me sometimes to help him out when my mums being unreasonable about something (LOL), because she can be very stubborn. Thats not to say that my dad is the submissive type, far from it, I think they have had more heated arguments than any other family (still together) and have divorced and remarried twice....LOL I've got a LOT of respect for my father, and hope to at least be half the man he is.....
