    What did you ride? and how long did you ride for? If you say dirt bike.....I wont even go there.


    Don't be one of these squids who goes out and buys a shiney new bike and is a highway racer or ends up dead on the mtn because they had no business up there.

    btw, if you get that Ninja, it will not have the flush mount turn signals that are pictured...that's European model only.

    honestly the last time i rode was 1999. and it was a 99 ninja. up till then i had spent the prior 4 years riding my dads goldwing while i was in high school. but i havent ridden since. so i'm gonna be smart about it when i get a bike.

    i was referring more to having a 170hp bike, not riding a bike in general. i've been riding for a while now and certainly have nothing against it . lately there's just a lot of new riders slinging a leg over literbikes with little to no riding experience and winding up trashing them in short order. that and the new 600 class bikes provide more than enough power than 99% of riders can take advantage of on the street anyway.... i've been contemplating selling my 954 to get back to the 600's.

    not in a straight line, but some of the newer 600's are catching up a bit in power/weight. railing in the mountains is a whole other story though. there are some guys who can manhandle those things around up there but i wouldn't really want to be in the twisties on one. last trackday i did i played around with a guy riding one for a few laps, i'd go wayyyyyy deeper on the brakes then accelerate out of the turns to open a huge gap, the slow down on the straights so he could blast by me then fall in and do it all again. after a few laps i stayed on my pace and nearly caught back up to him by the end of the session. ahh good times.
