Yeah, I've thought about getting a bike myself, but when you hear stories like this...... :sweat:

I think he would've been fine on the streets, but the canyons are a different story. I can't even split lanes yet, that still scares me. Since no one saw what happened (he was the last bike in line) to him, we dont know if it was sand, pushing too hard or something completely different.


Thanks again for all your warm wishes, every bit helps!

Whoa I hit someones oil spot around a cruve, and it was already still raining, and so lol my Impreza was drifting, I saw 2 cars on the other side of the rail look at me, they both slowed down but, simple turn into the way the car was fishtailing and bam! that was it, lol I wished I had my camera in for that, it happened so fast.

Dang I forgot I had MotoGP from Motegi, Japan on the replay tv..

i wasn't impressed with the way alonso and briatore taunted mclaren after yesterday's excellent win in china.

also alonso boasted that he won the championship in the slower car. i'm sure the renault boss (who isn't a fan of f1) doesn't need much encouragement to pull the plug on their f1 programme.

I missed the race again just like Suzuka, but how did he taunt? he does not need to be acting like an ass now.

Speaking of that Jordan and whoelse left F1?

Dang I still remember when Prost was still in F1.

fernando said he was frustrated at having won 'only' 7 races the same as kimi and that he should have won more. flavio said that mclaren's aim was to win the constructors title but renault beat them to that, too.

paul stoddart of minardi has left. i believe minardi has been bought by red bull so they'll have two teams next season.

Hmm well thats some way to taunt.

quite unprofessional if you ask me. never heard anything like that from ferrari or michael.

yeah Micahel seems to be having problems with his car, but if he was somehow able to take first place, you would never hear him say something like that.

mmm.... which one?

or the hyper bike?

I like the Kawasaki, but I've been looking at the R6, would be my first time riding so I dunno.

OooOoo... tough choice.. but i've always been partial to Yammy.

i'd go with the Raven color scheme.. though i dont think i'd want to pay extra for it.

Wow they make you pay extra? man I thought all the colours were the same price. :-/

The R6 is like $6K right?

I dunno the Kawasaki Ninja 250 would be decent for me pricewise, but you have to rev the piss out of it to get power with only 24hp at the rear wheel, but having a 14,000 rpm tach seems cool :P

but just does not sound the same as a inline 4 :P

Yeah, the Raven is (here in CA) $200-500 more depending on the dealer markup. 2005 retail for the rest $7999.. 2006 should be close, probably a few hundred higher.

"We are the Champions" played on the Renault F1 engine :hehe:
