The Netherlands.
I wonder what it's like to barf in your hemet.
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.

just get yourself any 600cc supersport made after 1990, go find a hilly road, no waiting in lines in the hot sun and you get to steer it yourself :D

Sean, I still did not take my K0 to the end of the throttle, I think she has the balls for 120mph - unlike me:)

yeah bud, me either...I will do 100 indicated maybe about once a year just to remind myself that it is scary on these old bikes, did 120 on Suzi Bandit 1200 and it felt safer than 55 on a cb750

H*ll yeah, I'ld ride it ! I'm not biased, I'll ride any bike :) ! I'ld like to have/borrow a crotch-rocket for a week or so just to see what they're like. Don't get me wrong, if I'ld change my rear sprocket I'ld have the acceleration of a c/r , but I like to cruise on my bike not drag race or drag knee ! I would like to have a c/r in the stable but I would NOT give up my 1976 cb750F1 to have one !!   ...cougar...
I'm not prejudice, I'll weld anything that pays! Knowledge that is shared is Never Lost!!   Right is right, wrong is wrong! The truth is the truth and a lie is a lie! DEAL WITH IT ACCORDINGLY !!!   I HATE "DIAL-UP"
