in reality no... I have no say in what he/she spends their money on... but if you don't want my advice don't ask. if you just want someone to support your preconceived choice... stand in front of a fuck'n mirror and ask away!

in the end... that's the only one who really cares anyhow.
Oh I agree with that...if someone asks...I'm just wondering....who the fuck asked? I mean did you actually read that long ass,sanctimonious,egomaniacal,load of shit? BTW I guarantee that YOU do not meet his criteria for buying that super sport that you want buddy. In fact,according to him you were an IDIOT for buying the bike you did get!!! How does that feel? Were you a fucking idiot for buying your ZZR for a first bike? What were YOUR "RETARDED" answers and "BS" excuses?

What really kills me is WHO cleared these guys to buy the super sport bikes they ride on now? Who gets to decide when someone IS ready for a SS bike? What are the requirements? Who gets to set the standards? This guy?

NAW... yeah I get ya... and honestly I didn't even read those long posts... it's been preached way too much... and honestly... like I said i could care less what you start on.


truth is... the advice is a very safe aproach trying to get people to realize what they're getting into... the problem is the advice generalizes... and you can't do that with motorcycles or people. every person is diffrent.

as for who asked... well no one yet... but go to any large froum and there's at least 3 or 4 new threads monthly if not weekly asking about what bike they should start on.

I think the author was just hope'n to type it once and blanket the majority of newbies...

HA I knew it you !!! Seriously,if you are VERY,VERY,VERY bored read it and tell me what you think. PM me if you don't want to upset your new BFF!!!

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.

Why would you want a 600cc when you're just going to outgrow it in a month or two. A Busa or a ZX14 is the best starter bike because it'll take at least a year or two to outgrow, and by that time you can buy the new one. Or at least get a turbo on a gixxer thou.
