Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
EASY RIDIN' aka. strap this engine between your legs and hang on for dear life.

just started again a few years ago on an '03 883 custom xl. was gonna buy it, but i think i'll hold out a bit longer for a 1200 or a cenzi. or that thing stale posted. goddamn. would still like a dirt bike in the garage anyway.
but today, i'm glad i'm not riding. DC is a fucking mess with these storms. i guess it goes without saying: you don't ride a harley in the rain anyway.

fuck me they look so awesome in person
i'd have to do something about that rear fender, but that is nice. i've ridden a few non-harleys, but was immediately turned of by the sewing machine sound they made when started. plus, i just don't think i get along with massively heavy bikes. i may have to adapt.

you kinda need full leathers anyway. Anything less and you're probably going to leave quite a bit of you on the road behind you.
if i go more than 20 miles from the house, i'll put on a leather jacket because it would require a highway of some sort. otherwise i'm on the virginia backroads. truthfully, i don't prefer highways.
and yes, road rash, asphalt, wire brush, thank you nurse! new subject!

60-80-mph acceleration: 5.20 sec.
Quarter-mile acceleration: 12.42 @ 107.23
You can get road rash going 20 mph, or get your feet cut open, or rub your hand to the bone. Wearing anything less than full gear is retarded.
Hahaha.

I'm seriously considering selling my 2001 Nissan Xterra and getting a street bike, as I got from 35-50 mpg with mine, and gas prices are... well... terrible.

Hah. Boss Hoss is for wins.
I'm pretty sure 90% of that curb weight is that motor. I want that motor in my Chevelle mmmmmmm. <3

Boss Hoss v. Kawi ZX12
Man, someone needs to take a Hoss, throw a slick on the back, and a wheelie bar, and take it out for a 1/4 mile spin. I bet that thing could turn low 9s.
Hmm... 2.5 lbs/HP on that thing. 1.88 lbs/HP on an F1 car. Not fucking bad, Boss Hoss.

The Dodge Tomahawk has a theoretical top speed of 350+ MPH. It's also got 500 HP, so... you know, if anyone was crazy/stupid enough to try... I'm sure it would probably be gear limited around 220 or so, though. Waste of gears, otherwise.

I'd just like to reiterate that "what the fuck"
I've wanted a motorcycle since highschool.
Considering I graduated about 9 years ago, I feel like I let my motorlust age long enough.
Getting this bike is my favourite thing I've done for myself in a long, long time.
