"Look at life early as a serious matter. Life is hard, it does not pamper anybody, and for every time it strokes you it gives you ten blows. Become accustomed to that soon, but don't let it defeat you. Decide to fight."

The Buddha

Adding to the endless parade of trash with poor pictures and generally 6-700% higher $ than the much better "stock" version ...

If you're gonna ask 2200 bucks for a $200 piece of trash wouldn't you atleast put better pics up ... oh I get it, that's where it broke down and he's not pushed it back home yet ... OK its all good.


Ya know somenoe oughta call them and let them know their POS ... well aint worth the pixels the ad is printed on.
Someone should call em and offer 500 bucks if they will revert it back to stock ...
I've messed with some of em, usually encouraging the Hayabusa Idiots who say after lowering the bike is more "aerodynamic" and so it goes faster ... I suggest they drain the oil and ride it, it will go even faster, the oil just slowing them down. Most of it has been in person too, so I gotta be careful not to get beat up.

Cool.
Buddha.

Well, if he's going to keep doing that to his bikes, I say we take them all away from him. BIKE ABUSE IS A CRIME!

Wow. How long before the wheel bearings are toast with that huge engine pulling on them?

So... How do you ride it? Do you just lean to the side and look around the tank, or is it designed for the budget-conscious NBA player?

Oh, he doesn't ride it anymore now that he finished airbrushing his Econoline 100 with waterfalls, the words "Gangster of Love," and a picture of that motorcycle flying though space.

Nah not really ... Just after seeing the photo of the mo-chine .. I thought if they did actually do an Indian remake .. The elephant killing the bike would be moral justice :)

The Buddha

WTF ... he's asking whaaa ...

http://charlotte.craigslist.org/mcd/2654674812.html

Nice enough bike ... bobber it is not and WTF - asking $$$. Heck I'd buy this before I buy that other one if I was stupid and rich ...
http://charlotte.craigslist.org/mcy/2653234997.html

Seriously there is a huge segment of bikes waiting for that stupid rich wannabe biker who cannot ride. My friend has one ... a hondamatic with a head gasket leak, a charging problem and sat for 15 years. Oh yea he has the gasket, so it must be worth what ... yup you got it, 2 grand.

Cool.

Oh yea track bike ... yup, someone is racing a katana ... yup.

http://charlotte.craigslist.org/mcy/2655970911.html
Yup it has a cam, it has a throaty sound. So if you have got a sinus infection and sound very hoarse and throaty that's it, you have a cam. And the kicker, no title ... of course you do know bobbers with cam dont need no steenkin title right ... yup.

Cool.

What is the obsession with turning heads? Also, between the hard tail and the leaned forward riding position what sort of back injuries do you think this causes?
