How the hell can you enjoy sex on that thing.

I suggest packing an inflatable mattress.

You paid $3500 for a 12 year old bike? That bike was like 7-8 Grand brand new.

And you think you'll find a better deal for a lot less? By all means prove me wrong...

Do a bit of research and you'll notice how the resale of bikes (based on price) will be.

I wouldn't get too riled up Bobby, because when you look at someone's signature and it says:

I got a
level 60 bullet for your mother f**kin' face


It's just impossible to be upset by them

Anyone, I'm sure the question everyone wants to ask is: How big is the subwoofer?

Not bad, Bobby. Is this your first bike? If so, be careful out there!

Also, as a plea from all decent bikers everywhere, ride smart. Don't do anything to justify the 'bad name' us bikers sometimes get.

Yessir! Taking things one baby step at a time. I'm getting comfortable with it, currently parking lot riding in 1st gear. I need to get more comfortable with changing gears, the speed obviously, and braking. Its fun! I'm going to bike week this weekend but I probably won't be riding, one step at a time baby! Just ordered a set of Pirelli Diablo tires and insurance cost me a little over $1300 for the year. Getting my tags and title transfer tomorrow.

I'm just saying, your buddy got a newer Suzuki for less. Didn't mean to flame. Was just basically asking if the engine was rebuilt, any mods, etc.

Edit: Looking at the pictures now, I see it does have a AM Exhaust. So some work probably has been done to the bike. Depending on the work, it could have been a deal.

Meh. I wouldn't take your statement seriously. If you look at someones location and it says Canada, it's impossible to care.

Bobby...I kind of pictured you in a decked out golf cart with a big football helmet covering it! LOL!!
You need to cruise up and take Buddy for a "little" ride!
