If you are ordering nuggets from KFC ...it's not chicken.

There's gotta be at least a little chicken in there, right??  :dunno_black:



Haha that had to of just been some discgruntled employee that cut off a head and had it deep fried, because clearly a whole head never could've made it through the machine that turns it into the mcnugget sludge they actually make them from....



Almost looks like ice cream

I looked at the GSX650f as well as the FZ6 & Versys. In person I didn't like the way the frame looked, and I noticed lots of GSX650f site members moved to other bikes quickly. Bought an 07 FZ6 cheap.
1982 Kawi GPZ-750, 1998 GS500.

Easy how a head got in there ... they hit em with a electric shock that makes em stand up stiff ... as a blade hacks off their head.
If a chicken was dead already, it wont stand up ... however not to worry, if a chicken was dead, they would never put it in their belt to be shocked and chopped, they would put it in the burger line ... so you're only getting fresh dead chicken ... I mean they slaughter them in 7 weeks, so this chicken died from some horrible disease in that 7 week ... but remember it didn't die say in 6 weeks, it just died, maybe minutes after it was on the belt. So a 7 week old dead from non electrical causes chicken ... man doesn't that sound delish ...

And BTW ... a black girl holding fried chicken ... toss in a slice of water melon in the pic and you got a southern classic.

Cool.

Just got back from Yamaha store. Salesman told me FZ6 is now discontinued. You want an FZ? It's now FZ8. He's pretty sure the XJ6 is also out. And as there is no Scorpio anymore, they'll have nothing between their underpowered 125 and the FZ8 - in Australia. And he doesn't understand why Yamaha is ignoring such a large segment of the market.

All nuggets are Stamped from something, like making cookies. All "deli meat" has wheat and soy flour in it. Why does bacon contain sugar? What actually is the Turkey-shaped turkey thing on the shelf? What on earth is Seafood Extender?

Used to work next to a chicken joint. Chickens could die in the cage on the back of the truck waiting to be "processed" - even if truck parked under canopy with fans and water blowing on them. Chickens die in the cage on the truck in transport.

Downer cows - just dropped dead for no apparent reason - are still put into the foodchain for humans to eat. Yum.

Best looking bike ever. I'm not as crazy about the bulkiness of that generation of gsxrs, but I'd go crazy if I could grab one of those. It's amazing what a good color scheme can do to an otherwise standard looking bike

I like the way the FZ8 looks. I've always liked the look of the naked FZ1, but don't need a bike that big. The thing that's really pissing me off lately though, is companies just taking bigger bikes, sleeving down the motor, and selling it as a completely different 'smaller' bike that's actually the same size and heavier. Kawasaki did it with the Z1000 and Z750, they just did it with the ninja 650 and the ninja 400, and now Yamaha is doing it. If you're gonna cut displacement you have to find a way to cut weight too. The GSXR750 was amazing when the SRAD version came out because it was a bike that had the weight of a 600 and the power of a 1000cc. What in the world made manufactures think they could start making 750-800s with the weight of a 1000cc bike and the power of a 600??  :cookoo:

The specs on the Aust Yamaha site say the FZ1 has a wet weight of 214kg while the FZ8 (built on a new 779cc engine) has a wet weight of 211kg. BUT, if they are including fuel in wet weight, then the FZ8 is lighter with 1 liter less fuel and a 180 rear instead of a 190. So essentially, the same weight as an FZ1 but with a 779cc engine WTF?

Well I think that bike looks sweet. Haven't ridden a GSXR in like 5 years. I don't think the power is much more then as it is now by a  little. I was in 5th gear and kicked it down to 4th and rode a wheelie by the throttle only past the 3 dumbass cages. It scared me at first until I remembered my days on the dirt where you lean where you want to go. I just leaned on the tank on the side I wanted to go an man that was fun!

I didn't dig into the yamaha weights, I just assumed they'd be the same, if not heavier for the smaller. I don't remember the exact numbers but I'm almost positive the z750 was even heavier than the z1000. You'd think they'd still be the same, but the 750 had a lot of cheaper parts, so the difference in suspension, the exhaust, and whatever else they changed actually made it heavier.


Yeah I doubt there's a huge power difference between the gsxrs. Half of the HP difference is going to be from raising the redline and stripping the bike of midrange, so I'd actually prefer an earlier version since it would make a better street bike for what I would do with it. I know just about any bike can be wheelied, but I'm not looking to get technical, do anything goofy, or abuse things like the clutch. I just think it would be fun to have a bike for a while with enough power to just do what I want it to, haha. Don't need to do stand up wheelies on the highway, it would just be fun to get on the gas and have the front wheel lift a foot or so no matter what speed I'm riding it.

You upgrading? Doing deals with the dark side are we?
I might go into Top Gun tomorrow since they're having a sale on Shoei helmets. My Shoei is illegal  >:( Since when does a little sticker with ticks on it make you safer. Serious BS.

If there is a deal to be had, there is always the possibility of Adding to the stable.  ;) But you won't get any Deals at a Dealer.

I actually find Topgun has a better selection of Helmets/Boots/Gloves than Pro and often pop in there to look at their gadget goodies and other assorted accessories. I was surprised how barren their showroom floor is. Stacks of dirt bikes, but not too many road bikes. You'll see when you go in. Found out all this when I made a passing comment to the "can I help you" that there were no FZ6's as I headed to the stairs at the back of the store. I then had to politely listen  :icon_rolleyes:
