Can I stunt on it yo? Can I do the mad fresh stoppies or pimp out some dope wheelies?

Um...the "yeas" never even read your entire post....trust me,I know these guys.

Oh and you can shit can the "I'm so much better than you because I teach MSF" attitude as well. Oh and I took MSF AND have assisted a few times back in the day. Whoopie Doo!!! You're like an elementary school basketball coach trying to take credit for Michael Jordan's NBA career. Yeesh...

Actually,some scooters do quite nice wheelies! I know a guy here who has custom painted his scooter and it even has NEON!!!!

Oh and I think that the author just thought he found somewhere new to post his long winded dissertation on why he knows best and everyone else is stupid if they don't agree with him.

tig... with 600+ post a day now I doubt I'll be getting bored enough to read all that...

but I'll make an effort tonight.

but like I said... I think it's the BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY standpoint... I think he knows not everyone is going to listen to him... but the ones that do... will "probably" be better off.

the thing is they have nothing to loose (other than some douchbags opinion of them) by starting small. but it's impossible to give general advice like that and have it apply to everyone.

I think they guy just assumed that we may have some new riders or wanna be's and is offering up some advice. knowing most won't take it.



Oh... and Racer-X... meet Tigger

It's just that this isn't a NOOB haven. Heck,I went back to and every other post is some noob asking questions. That is one of my favorite things about this board almost zero new riders! I mean if he would have taken the time to read some of the threads in this sub forum,he would have seen that this shit has been covered ad nauseum already and that there were almost no "what should I get for my first bike?" threads here.

Ok I'm taking deep breaths......alright cool...

Hey RacerX welcome to TWFix!

[Mr Lefty]

it's nice to a point... but we want this place to grow... noobs are inevitable.

Once upon a time when the money flowed a little better than a slow drip, and I didn't treat my credit like a drunken prom date, I tried to haggle a local scooter place on the price of an ItalJet Dragster 180 that was sitting in their tiny showroom. I'll wager dollars to donuts that little monster would get up on a wheel with very little coaxing. But they can still eat shit on a $4K asking price for used product. Don't care how rare they are around these parts, back then it was (and still is) a used 600 or damn close to it.

4k!? fuck.... I got my 05 ZZR600 with 618 miles in Jan of 06 for 4999 OTD with an arai profile helmet included...

your ass is getting ripped off if you buy a scooter for 2K+ IMO
