I'm pretty sure it's some kind of late model GSXR. The tailpipe on the right and the windscreen/mirror mounts indicate this anyway. (So does the single light pod being dragged along the ground ... )

I saw a girl around town wearing what looked like a bikini and flipflops, long hair in a ponytail behind her, on some green supersport.

For all the creams, waxes, and junk they put in their skin (Im not complaining!) you would think they'd be a little more concerned about it.

I guess an FBI background check and 10 day waiting period is next...

don't mean to sound callous, but here's another example of the stupidity of a few ruining things for everyone....I have this feeling that if she survives this, she'll end up being paraded about like a thinksgiving day float everytime this issue comes up...like the way brady is paraded about everytime the gun the control issue is stirred up...

like the honda slogan says...stupid hurts

So you think you should be able to buy a motorcycle without a license?

I don't think you can even buy a car without a license. Or at least when I bought mine, though it was used through Enterprise, they required multiple copies of my license.


I think it makes sense to only sell to people with a license.

Of course you can buy a car without a license. Otherwise how would a business buy a car?

I bought (and registered) my first car when I was 14. Of course, I couldn't drive it on public roads for years, but it was a bit of a project car anyway.
