Place to post why you think your bike is the best out there.
If you
OWN a 250 Ninja or a 500 something or other or a 600, 750, 1000, whatever. Cruiser, sport, touring, scooter....Tell us why it's the right bike for you and what you love about it so much that you can't wait to tell the world.
If you hate your bike or a particular model, or feel like talking out of your o-ring on something you haven't ridden on...want to preach about small bikes for beginners....etc...go somewhere else to bit#h.
Enjoy!!!
GO M109R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it and proud to say it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for pointing that out.
So, since this thread is already created lets change the subject to: Why I bought a big bike instead of a small one(or traded my small bike) and how glad I am that I did.
Need more input from those who started out/traded up on the bigger bikes and did just fine....

How about a "Why I like my smaller bike?"
My smaller bike at 700cc can spank the majority of cruisers on a dragstrip... The fact that it's about 20 years old makes that fact even better
Too bad the suspension is nothing to write home about... I've got progressive fork springs on order, and I'm looking to swap in some valkyrie shocks for the rear. Hopefully that'll help some.

LoL, my 600 makes the bug bore cruisers look like little dots in the mirrors.

i started on a gixxer1000 last january '06. i just went by looks when i bought a bike.
i was very careful w/ the throttle and took it easy for the 1st few months.
i crashed on it at the canyons when i got over-confident. i only got damaged fairings from the accident, nothing was broken except some plastic and my confidence.
it was stolen last april '06.
got another gixxer last june '06. the experience i got from the 1000 made riding the 750 a lot easier.

Do you ever think you'll go back to the 1000 class? If so why/why not?

hellz yeah! i'll go back to a 1000 if i can. i still miss that xtra boost the 1000 gave me. although the 750 can also go 0-60mph is less than 3 secs.
not another gixxer1000 K6 though. im curious to see what the gixxer1000 K7 will look like since it's going to be updated.

sev's bike isn't a "ninja" though.
it's honda 599, a
naked standard bike. but it's an I-4.
