So.. I was thinking about buying the new ZX-14, cause I really like the green, and I'm kinda a bigger guy at 5'9" and about 180 lbs, if I wear a helmet... (I usually don't, head gets too hot in that thing!)
I was wondering, is this a good bike for me? I rode my buddies 80 around the lake cabin last summer a couple times and did pretty good. Only crashed into the shed twice.
Let me know what you think, I'm buying it tomorrow. Salesman said that I could get 1.9% interest if I signed up for their financing! that sounds great as the payments would only be like $49 a month!
That would give me tons of cash to pimp it out, maybe put some NOS on it or something, and really be able to pick up some ho's!

I'm kinda broke, so I think I'm going to try to scam by without insurance for awhile. Someone said it would be crazy expensive on that bike anyway, so not really worth it. Besides, it's not like I plan on wrecking it anyway.

Hey, we're close to the same dimensions.
We should be best friends and ride together on our motorcycles for all the vaginas.

What do you mean, not noob friendly?
There will be 3-5 people that will greet them with a , and then you usually chime in with a shovel comment.
And it just goes on from there...
