I do it on the bus.
Nothing like going form 80 to 180 in the time it takes to pass two cars.

Don't even TRY to beat your chest and PRETEND you've got the balls to go over 140 on that bus

I don't think I even did THAT on mine

I liked the Speed Triple I rode this summer. Though I didn't get to rail on it, the suspension didn't feel all that bad to me.

The worst bike? A home built mini bike with a 5hp Briggs and Stratton back when i was 10. Oh and a 1980ish Honda 110cc trail bike sucked sweaty balls as well.

The rest of them were all enjoyable to ride. The FJ1200 was the first street bike I ever rode so I didn't know any better. Had I ridden something nicer first, I may have not liked that bike.

Worst was a harley softtail. And its not just a cruiser thing since I loved the two victories i have ridden. I really don't enjoy 600s anymore after riding the R1 for over a year. I'm spoiled by having power wherever i am through the revs.

A Buell Lightning(?), what a piece of shit!!! It vibrated so bad that I thought it was going to fall apart! No power, vague brakes, goofy riding position... no thanks!!!

How dare you. HOW DARE YOU!......................wait. I don't have one of those.

Worst bike: KTM SMC-690.......what a POS.......TONS of brake dive, seat too high and narrow, bars feel like ape hangers, hitting the rev limiter constantly

I finalize the deal on Monday... but took it for a couple hour ride yesterday. they've got some goodies to put on it

(wish i could do it... but have no way of doing so with it being my only vehicle)
