Don't ban him, he is entertaining and sometimes starts some good shit talking battles. We need to laugh when we read some of these things, not be all serious.

Really? Tell this guy.

The reality is that you have the wrong way round. Cars are far easier to drive fast as the perception of danger is much farther removed from a car. Do 100mph with your knee an inch from the ground while wearing jeans and repeat your same comments. Not only are motorcycles far harder to ride at ten tenths, the penalty is far greater. And more importantly, hockey puck.

well said chris. i have far more respect for anyone that can pilot a motorcycle at extreme speeds (especially through the turns). sure, it takes a good bit of practice and skill to be good at a car but bikes are even a step beyond that. i'm still trying to perfect it on my pocket bike before i save up for that R6 though :).

oh, and hockey puck indeed.

So the statement was a over the top, but fact of the matter is its to easy for somone of no skill to go really fast. I have lost a two of my friends to
motorcycles. I have watched 3 accidents in ONE night to people on motorcycles. Its insane how fast one can go w/ a coulple of grand and good credit. I have gone and watched super bikes at road atlanta, its f'ing awsome seeeing them come onto the back straight away w/ the bike starting to step out. But you get people who buy them w/ no respect for the speed they have, and if you don't respect it, you are going to get hurt, or hurt others. So if i thnk motorcycles are gay, well thats my choice, i could really care less if somone buys one just stay away from me. Oh and Chris i do beleave we lost 2 bikes when we went to the mountians ealier this summer because they couldn't keep up.
