My bike is bigger than both of your bikes.
And my women hotter.
So there.

Boutique rider?
I guess I enjoyed my motorcycles much like my dive gear... form and function over unnecessary fru-fru BS. (BP/W rocks!)
For a bargain of a price too... If I balled it up it wasn't a big deal. I used to laugh at the guys with their fancy italian bikes afraid to ride them because they might get scratched, and if they did try and push 'em they realized they were subpar in performance to any of the top 4. I'm not sure what a boutique rider is but if road racing is considered being a boutique rider than I guess that's me. We always refered to the idiots with 20k "fine italian machinery" that would ride 2 miles a week to starbucks and back home as the cafe racers.
Ahhh I need to get back to the track it's been too long... Blackhawk farms raceway circa 2006 on my SV :cool2:
Ah yes, you fearless road course riders. No dirt on road, no cages, no braving the elements. How many miles do you put on while riding the close course? Hell, I'll bet that the Hardly-Ableson boyz put on more miles going to their mall cruising and Starbuck posing than you ever will.
But hey, it's all good. Some of us are real riders and some of us are boutique riders.
And if you're gonna take a corner, try to do it on an overgrown dirt bike and then I'll be impressed.
PS Taking it out to the track ain't "racing". When Honda/Yamaha/Suzuki/Kawasaki/Ducati/Aprilia/BMW/Triumph started paying you to wear their colors, then it's racing.
Dear BP/W-philes,
What makes you tick? I may like, or even love my gear (mmm, spring straps), but in responding to posts on regs I try to not bring up safety sausages, and in responding to posts on computers I try to not mention the type of fin I use. However, to me it seems that BP/W is the cure to whatever diving malady ails me. It will help me achieve better trim (clearly proper weighting through any other means is impossible), get more bottom time (streamlining by other means cannot be achieved), allow me to avoid getting speeding tickets and will lessen the severity of jelly stings. Don't get me wrong - I am sure that it is great for you and works for you. Heck, it might even work for me if I gave it a try. The point is that I travel to many of my dive sites and a nice travel BC suits me just fine.
Is there a "you-drank-the-Kool-Aid" emoticon on SB? You know, a cross between and :guillotine: with a very healthy dose of thrown in? Even a "Call the Question" (cf. Robert's Rules of Order) icon to help focus people on what the OP asked, as opposed to what you are dying to say?
PS if you're going to talk **** on track riders don't post pictures of someone on the track, especially somone that isn't you. Can we all agree you've been successfully owned now? Try winning an argument with me about deep air... you have better odds.
Sorry Mr StreetDoctor but Danth's Law and all, you just lost
But please continue anyway if you feel like it, comparisons between men about their toys and other things are always highly amusing to me
I'd like to nominate Saspotato the official moderator for this thread!
P.S. cute leathers LOL you are one of those guys that wears full leathers on the street... on a dirtbike no less LOL NICE!
If you haven't done some offroading in Arizona's 110-F sun with leathers on, then you haven't done any real riding.
600-miles days in Wisconsin? Oh my, that's some heavy mileage.
