This makes me sick

A SOPHOMORE IN HIGH SCHOOL has a 50th anniversary R6...

Mommy and Daddy pretty much spoil the kid

[pantablo]

are you sure he/she hasnt been saving up for it?  I'm just sayin'.

[annguyen1981]

working at Taco Bell?  for the last year?  and it's his first job.

Sorry...  I'm pissed at some tenants.  I need to vent.

[CirclesCenter]

I try not to worry about what other people are doing.

So, he has a "fancy" LE R6.

I doubt he would ever understand or appreciate motorcycling in the way most of us (including you An) do.

[southern man]

Probably be a candidate for the USA presidency!!

[pantablo]

well, he DOES have a better bike than An...probably gets laid too, that bumble bee scheme is sexy.

[annguyen1981]

That's my issue...

WE appreciate the joy of riding.  WE won't be doing stupid shaZam! on the roads that give us REAL BIKERS a bad name and/or endanger them and/or other innocent people.

I spend my hard earned money on gear first, then maintanance, THEN mods...  Him?  Here's his list of "accomplishments":
My 50th R6 Has:
GP Shifting
Puig Double Bubble Black Windscreen
Black LED Pig Spotters
Targa Fender Eliminator
LP Racing Flushmount Signals
Soon 2 Come:
Yellow Seat Cowl
Pazzo Racing Short Black Levers
Acumen Blue Digital Gear Indicator
Shopping List:
HyperPro Steering Damper
LeoVince SBK Full Exhaust System Factory Carbon Fiber
Power Commander PCIII
Vortex Adjustable Rearsets Black
Pilot Power Race Tires
520 Chain Conversion
SpeedoHealer
BMC Race Air Filter
Pazzo Short Black Levers
Galfer Wave Rotors
Galfer SS Lines
Brisk Spark Plugs

I'd LOVE to do some mods, but I EARN my money.  It's bad enough I don't get paid what I'm worth, but at least I take pride in my work and do the best that I can.  I put aside a VERY small amount for stuff like this.  Sometimes I even dip into my mad money for legit reasons.

Priorities.

However if you fling a tire iron into his wheel while he's going do the road I won't think any less of you.

the 50th ... thats not the raven is it ? girl at work .. here soon to be hubby just bouth an 06-07(not sure what year she just said they where only making 100 or so of them )  raven ......... r6 .....payed something like 14k for it .. i was like .. screw that .. i'd get a regular r6 for was less and mod the crap out of it for that kind of money ...but ... yet again .. its a limited edition ..

[CirclesCenter]

For 14k can't you just buy an R1?

[pantablo]

the 50th is yellow/black (bumble bee version).

its a limited edition but more than just 50.

msrp=10,800US/12,999CAN
Fearedgs500-if you're talking US dollars she got a bad deal. especially if she got a black one, LOL.
Its not even as nice a limited edition as the R1LE...thats like $18,000 but comes with top tier components.

[NiceGuysFinishLast]

WTF are pig spotters? My first thought was mirrors... but they're LED... so are they mirrors with LED turn signals integrated?

Also, wtf is a speedohealer?

Also, wtf is a 16 year old doing with ANY R6, much less an LE?

I knew people in highschool who had nice bikes and cars but they worked for them most of the time and a lot of the guys who had bikes were motocross racers who raced on the weekends and made some loot. really good at it too. i know one kid bought and sold cars and made money off that over and over again. you gotta look deeper into it. just because they are young does not meen they dont appreciate the ride.

[rob1bike]

Maybe instead of being all negitive and letting your ego take over, talk to him, maybe offer up some advice...with out shoven it down his throat. Help him to learn the basics and what not. I've got a couple younger kids that work for me..18 and 19, they soak it up if you approach it correctly!

[FearedGS500]

[Jake D]

I agree with Jah. 

Now go drink some Haterade.

[l3uddha]

so what do you know about this kid An... probably nothing. Dont judge people just because you're jealous.


Besides that; this kid could have been riding dirt, minibikes, or two strokes his/ her entire life. You'd be suprised how early some kids start. I'm sure you really dont know him at all & have little to no idea about how responsible he is with his money & how safe he rides on the street.

those mods he's doing to his bike seep pretty legit An. who cares where the hell he get his money to do them; I really dont think it's any of your business anyways.  I love how you say your proirities are gear, maintenence, and THEN mods.... when I recall a thread from you saying the first thing you were gonna do when you got the bike was friggin Angel Eyes....  real mature.

Though, I could be completly wrong & this is his first bike and he rides it like a complete ass. Either way, I'm not gonna lose sleep over it. Stop getting your panties in such a bunch An...

I'd imagine that's because he already had gear (from when he was riding his GS) and the bike was already properly maintained by the previous owner before An bought it.
