Parachute pants and pokemon may have had a long run as well..... but it doesnt change the fact that it was a totally unnecessary idea...

But i'm with you, I hate those 300+ size tires on sportbikes. Just rediculous and counterproductive....

Fake bullet hole stickers.

Real bullet holes would be much cooler.

I feel the same way about flame paint jobs.

I wouldn't say the busa is totally unnecessary idea... they're outstanding bikes... just like the GSXR line... they just have a cult following... a lot of which are... well... retards...

but for sport touring... busa beats pretty much anything

Why do you need THAT much engine for sport touring??? Throw the damn engine in a Gixxer 1000 frame and race the bitch....

why do you need a GSXR1000? a 600 will still put you over 120mph and 0-60 under 4sec...

does that make the GSXR1000 a bad idea?

shit look at the Gold wing... I'm sure it doesn't NEED a 2300cc V6... but it's so you can still get some performance even when it's loaded down.

I remember the "Hey PeeWee, (insert moronic comment) your fly" shirts people wore. I actually saw someone wearing on in a Wal-Mart a few weeks ago here. I guess nightmares never end.

Also, anything ninja turtles, which still hasn't ended because the cartoons are still on.
