Well . . . you did say that your bike is better than my bike.

Better at what? Going over the speed limit down the highway? Okay . . . you got me there.

Better around town? I doubt it. The WR is an awesome around-the-town bike.

Better on the back roads? I doubt it. Again . . . the WR makes a killer back road/twisty bike.

Better commuter? Doubt it. The WR has a more comfortable seating position.

Better on a race track? Yup, but I'm not a racer.

Better on gravel roads? pfft

Better on 2-track? pfft

Better on single track? pfft

Better for camping off of? pfft

So if I'm going to the race track or want to barrel down the highway in search of a speeding ticket, I'll take the 1k. Every where else I'll stick to my sucky ass little 250 street bike

Hmmm how is it two up?

Hey I'm done here, you guys stated that I'm stupid for having my gf wear jeans to ride and I think that you are wrong AND you're a hypocrite because you even admit that you wear jeans to ride so nyah,nyah,nyah!

Oh and you missed one, I sure that you get way better gas mileage than I do! You're probably up there with a Spree in that regard!

Eh, I took the passenger pegs off so I have no idea how it is 2up

And for the record . . . I never told you to make her wear anything. I suggested you actually let her wear the shorts as a matter of fact

I dunno. There are a few stretches in "__________________" where I've run close to 170 that's pretty close to nirvana.

You said, "I was gonna say . . . you insist on jeans? They aren't really any better than the shorts she has on right now. " and I think that you are wrong. All the rest of this is smoke and mirrors...

Well, since you are in Texas, you could hook up with him and have your GSXR run off the road by his 250!

As an ex-Busa rider I concur with you sir. Sometimes all out speed can be very enjoyable!

Eh, my bike doesn't see the street anymore these days. I've become a track whore thanks to a great connection...

I just entertain myself at work reading the internet when I'm bored...
