#203234 Flashback (Moderator) Just the facts, Ma'am.. Moderator Posts: 9221 Re:im gonna get flamed for this, but im feeling brave 2 Years, 11 Months ago   I think for many of us, it's a throwback to the old days when we would get an old 57 chevy or ford and hop it up a bit. ..would it outrun an XKE? probably not, but it was just a fun thing to do..   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #203248 Bushman52 (User) American by birth...Southern by the grace of God. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1777 Re:im gonna get flamed for this, but im feeling brave 2 Years, 11 Months ago   I pull over to the fog line and let the crotch rockets go by.. wouldn't even consider racing them...but it sure is fun waving by to the HD's {at less than 1/2 the price}   Logged     \\\\\\\" No matter where you go....there you are.\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access. #203250 Big Dawg (User) On the road again . . . Platinum Boarder Posts: 1220 Re:im gonna get flamed for this, but im feeling brave 2 Years, 11 Months ago   I wouldn't be a bit surprised if my old XS650 would outrun my Roadie off the line, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to make my frequent trips from NC to FL on it ! ! !   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #203257 Mr Cancilla (User) Are ya kidd'in me!

Moderator Posts: 6997 Re:im gonna get flamed for this, but im feeling brave 2 Years, 11 Months ago   I'm extremely pleased with my 'Liner. With 90 hp and 105 fpt on the ground , and the brakes and alloy frame to match , she's all about the business. Faster than a Warrior , but more comfy. This bike needs nothing (put a slip on - on for some noise), but otherwise , she's one healthy cruiser. But , if I wanted to go fast , I'd kept my 1200 Bandit.

For me, I just enjoy tweaking the best performance out of whatever it is I'm working with, while staying within my budget of course. Hell, I'd hot rod my lawn mower if I had the spare change to spend on it. I prefer big v-twins for the same reason I'd sooner drive a big block, 4-speed Chevelle than Ferrari. It may be slower but it's just not the same. I wanna feel the torque and the vibes, and I want that rumble when I cruise by.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #203607 chromepony (User) There's no such thing as too much chrome Platinum Boarder Posts: 1341 Re:im gonna get flamed for this, but im feeling brave 2 Years, 11 Months ago   ...that's what I'm talkin' about!!   Logged     ...I love the smell of smoked pork on a warm summer night!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #203669 eblack (User) Don't force things, just use a bigger hammer Expert Boarder Posts: 432 Re:im gonna get flamed for this, but im feeling brave 2 Years, 11 Months ago   If I wanted to I could make my roadstar smoke any gsxr out there!!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #203691 bangngearz (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 412 Re:im gonna get flamed for this, but im feeling brave 2 Years, 11 Months ago   I am with BB, I road a Stratoliner with aftermarket air-filter and tweaked fuel map. Real torque monster. Hard to justify swapping out with my present RS cuz it is so darn purdy. Once I get my house remodeled... I might indulge in a 2nd bike, along the lines of a ST1300 & BMW RT Buck Reynolds 01 RS Dls.TX no mas diablo >>> 01/04/93 CMA 137933   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
