Hello,

Before I start please NO flaming, because I usually never play around. Well while on 495 heading to the Cape this morning, a white SHO decides to tailgate me on a wide-open highway I looked in my rearview to notice a dashmounted tach the size of my head, and about a hundred SHO stickers all over it and started to laugh. Well I turned OD off and laid on it, and much to my surprise I had about 2-3 cars on him. He was not pulling on me at all. I was having alot of fun at this point so when I let him get next to me we did it again, 2-3 car lengths this time. I was alittle shocked and very happy, cause I figured he would have done better than that. (it was the early 90's version with the Yamaha motor) Oh, and please no flaming. Just had to celebrate

 

He's telling us not to flame him ahahha thats funny, hey, how do u like your F4i?

 

I thought if I posted this I would get some sort of negative comment from someone, but if I can't share this with you guys than who do I tell it too? haha. I like the F4i alot, and I've been through alot with that bike at the same time. Long story... I wish I had your'e 929 though haha

 

nice race. i understand about what you mean about posting. tonight some guy in a dakota with his gf tried to race me from a light. needless to say i spanked him. but i wouldnt start a thread about it unless i beat something that was actually a challenge.

 

This is very true! I was shocked I did that well against one of them, that's why I posted it Oh and by the way, watch out for those Dakota R/T's, my cousin has one and they are pretty quick..

 

What year SHO? The V8 autos were kind fo dogs. The earlier v6 5 speeds were quick and if in good condition AND modded, would have kicked your butt.

By the way I'll see your F4 and 929 and raise you a Busa.

 

I wish I had a Gixxer 1000 to raise all of you!

 

Silly kid, gixxers are for squids!

 

Wanna come out and play with the twins?



Former toy:



By the way...nice kill..I thought those older SHO's were faster?

 

Are those GSXR1000 and TL1000R? Damn, I really want to get a bike, but I'm afraid of the consequences. It would be fun to have a Max and a bike to fulfill all the needs for speed, but I just don't want to pay for it with my limbs/life.

I still envy peeps that have them though!

 

Twins: Honda CBR 929's

Single: Honda CBR 600 F4i

 

If you don't feel you are capable of handling one like an adult, than don't bother because it is too easy to turn into pavement burger. It fills my need for speed But back to the SHO, it was the 94-95 model and he must to have been stock, cause it was not a prob. for the 3.0VQ

 

R1 all the way baby!!

 

 

See, that's the issue here--I'm not concerned with myself not being able to handle it. I'm worried about all the dumba$$es on the road that I can't control. There's only so much you can do on two wheels to avoid an accident.

 

Amen to that. This is the #1 reason I don't have a bike here in GA...

 

Which year SHO?

 

these guys don't need bikes

 

 

Heh heh...


DOH! 172 MPH passing state patrol = new pair of underwear

 

 

And the dummy slowed down.......Doh...Knee Jerk reaction I guess.

 

I'll see your Busa and 929s and Gixxers and Raise you a Tiller (TL1000r), actually it's my racing twin!!! My next bike though will probably be a new R6, plenty of bike for here and nice and light. F the R1s and Gixxer Ks squid bikes!!! Sorry no offense to the owners but the riders out here think they are Las Vegas extremes and usually end up Albuquerque injured

 

The 1K's I run into around here are usually ridden by squids who like to wheelie more that ride the bike, granted I wish I could do what they do but for some reason they all lose races

 

what is the convertible behind the bikes in the first picture. just curious and wondering if those are urs

 

OMFG...some good shots and some sheer stupidity.

These are the nimrods that cause sport bikers to have a bad name. But my guess is they are young and have not learned. I cant say I have not done some "no-nos" on mine.

At least most of them were in upper leathers and helmets. My ONLY complaint about seeing most bikers around here. Most are "too cool" to wear helmets and protective gear.

No protective gear = dumb ****.

I dont understand the "squid" comments refering to the Grands.???

 

You know I second that about the no helmets thing, That (and again this is my opinion)is the most ignorant thing to do is ride a bike made for speed and barely visible to cars at times without a damned helmet. The kids out here say if they wear a helmet the girls won't be able to see them and it will mess up their hair! Sure they can wheely for a mile but throw a turn at them and watch them crash or fall or ride incredibly slow. Or you get the motogp wannabes that watch racing and think they can do the same thing. Last season a novice guy was out during practice with the experts and attpted to stuff it up the inside on a friend of mine and lost control of his R1 and washed the front end of my buddy, causing him to break his hip, ribs and spleen and be out of racing and riding for well over a year...

 

Thats just not cool. How was he even able to practice w/ experienced riders??? Skipping the front = new shorts...every damned time!

Typically (around here anyway) R1 riders are young and bought the bike for "show". I have yet to see one last a whole summer.

 

1) 2000 S2000 Black with Red leather interior.

2) Yes...on the way to the track.

 

I match your Busa, Gixxer, F4i, 929, and R1 and raise you a Duc 748S

 

What about Team Green????



I only have shots of her brand new. The Giant mud guard in the back, the reflectors, and the crazy turn signals got chucked minutes after these shots were taken.

Oh yea, no flames on the chicken stripes either, there was only 25 miles on the odometer. They're gone now.

2k2 Kawi ZX6R

i have a gixxer1000 and love it !!!!!!!

 

ducati.........hahahaha gixxer1000 baby!!!!! let me shoW all you guys my taillight! BYW i've killed a couple of s.h.o.'s also......

 

You lucky SOB!!!

I see you're in MA too. Drivers out here are crazy, how do you manage to avoid them?

 

accually i have slowed down allot this past year.....too many copchases.........ooops did i say that?(jk)

 

Those videos are sick....and a perfect example of what NOT to do.
I am the 26 yr old son of a 52 yr old sport bike rider who still has yet to own a bike of his own (though currently drooling over a 2003 R6). I have plenty of old school thinking in my young (reletively) head that I THINK I could approach motocycling in a sane way...just got to find the $$$...

That all said, I find it very poetic indeed that a post started about a Yamaha powered domestic sports sedan on a Japanese sports sedan enthusiests board would become a motorcycling thread

 

i hear that..........

 

Nice bikes on the trailor! i got the black and yellow 929 also. For the ducati fans; there still getting whooped by the RC51's (duc eaters)!

 

hey oregon, I can't even make myself like that puke green kawisucky color, the bike i'm sure is rock solid and fast!

 

Yea, anyways how bout those SHO's
