Motorcycles!
I kinda, accidentally, derailed someone else's thread with motorcycles. So I moved this here, who rides, what do you ride, all year, season, twisties, high ways, tracks? Whatever let us know.
I ride a 2006 Ninja 650r. Had it geared for racing, but I changed it back to OEM sprockets because I could never find anyone else on a sport bike around my town so there was no point to lessen my gas mileage. It's fine, can still do 135 on a straight away. [You must be logged in to view images.

Moved this over from other thread!
I had a 2008 special edition Daytona 675....incredible bike, highly recommend. Only reason I sold it and got my 08 hayabusa was cause it was a lot more comfortable for the wife on trips.

I haven't ridden for a few years now...sold my bikes to fund my standup jetski addiction.
However, when I did ride i never made it to the track though I wanted to. We have some very good riding up here for twisties and straights if you like speed. Maxxed my hayabusa out twice at 190 on the speedo..so prolly like 183ish on gps. Bike was amazing...the gen2 frame actually handled really well, and I could break 100mph in first gear...out of 6. Crazy fun machine My daytona was an amazing bike too...a scalpel to the busa's chainsaw. Triple still had great power and accel but it really shined in the twisties...super flickable...dragged knees a few times without really trying.

My wife starts to get kinda funky at around 40 minutes when riding, but I just really don't want a cruiser. Nothing against them, but I don't feel like I'm in control with forward controls. I like the tucked in feel of sport bikes. As far as future bikes go, Daytona is my top 1 at the moment, unless I decide to go up to 1000cc, then I'm probably looking at the s1000rr. Or the Ninja H2... Oh gawd the Ninja H2...

As far as gearing for the street, doing the common one down two up shouldn't really affect gas mileage too much. | |||
