Well...you're a GIRL.....so you lack the NEED to destroy all others on the road



If a man is walking down a path in the woods and come upon a spider web in his way and needs to remove it......and looks down and see's a perfectly good stick....sitting next to a flame thrower...WHICH one will we pick up?

No one has mentioned the FJR1300? This is a great sport tourer, and was built for the purpose. Have to say I love mine.

I think they looked a fair bit newer than they were too, which was another point in their favor. I'd love a mid 90's VFR 750 for a sport touring toy. V4 torque, no cam chain tensioners, famed Honda dependability, really not much of a down side.
dont be so shocked. a friend has one. heavy ugly and constantly broken. 2 of 3 i can deal with buttt...

and i actually like the fjr. just havent had a chance to get up close to one yet

You already have a sport touring machine. I thought the 954 toured wonderfully.

Man, that's such an awful stereotype. True, there are a bunch of squids out there who have piled on a ton of chrome to their Busa, but really, those people are in the minority. Inferring that most Busas are streched and chromed is just ignorant and short sited.

Everyone knows the stretched out squid bike of choice down here is the ZX-14. Only queerbags are still pimping out their Busa when the uglier and one pubic hair faster according to the mags yo ZX-14 is da hot shit. Ninja fo lyfe!
